Sharing Life. Saving Lives. Donate Blood
Sep 16 @ 7:00 am – 7:00 pm
The Blood Connection

We are Asheville’s Community Blood Center.

 

We’re proud to call Western North Carolina home. Our dedicated staff work and live in the area, just like you. Whether you’re here for the breath-taking mountain views or the cooler weather, we’re glad you’re here to help us save the lives of your neighbors.

Our centers are the perfect places to give back and kick back. Open every day, yes weekends too, makes it easy to fit donating into your schedule.

You could probably use a little peace, and every Blood Connection center offers that. Clean, spacious, and comfortable, a center getaway may be exactly what you need…it’s exactly what 3 blood recipients need too.

Every donation has the power to save up to 3 lives. Every 2 seconds, someone in the U.S. is in need of a life-saving blood transfusion. You’re 1 person who can make a difference!

Garden Pots Needed! GreenWorks
Sep 16 @ 9:00 am – 5:00 pm
Sand Hill Nursery / Buncombe County Sports Complex

Garden pots are essential to our operations at the tree nursery, and we’re running low! Do you have extra plastic nursery pots lying around your house?

 

Please drop your pots off at our Sand Hill Nursery in the “Return Pots” section (Buncombe County Sports Park, 24 Apac Circle, Asheville) look for a sign on the fence.

The SuperHappy Trivia Challenge
Sep 16 @ 7:30 pm
Attic Salt Theatre Company

A two-year layoff has been just too much for host Adam Arthur and his idiot contestants. But they are back for three months of lukewarm competition and semi-sweet rivalries. Once a staple of the Asheville comedy scene, the return of this pseudo game show will be most welcome.

HUNGER ACTION MONTH - THE GOOD
                                  YOU CAN DO TODAY
You Can Fill Plates for Those Who Need it Most
September is Hunger Action Month — a time to acknowledge the work we do all year long alongside our community in the fight against hunger, and a time to raise awareness of the obstacles that face more than 100,000 people in Western North Carolina who don’t have enough food tonight.
The dramatically widening gap between income and cost of living in our region continues to create deep hardship for working families, seniors, and single parents who reach out to MANNA and our partners for help. And thanks to you, and the supportive community joining us in this daily work to make a real, lasting difference for our neighbors. You see it in the eyes of a man who lights up at the sight of a watermelon, and in the tears of relief from a young mother receiving a box full of food.
The good you can do today is with a simple donation.

Your support today has the power to change lives. Thank you for joining us in the action to address hunger in WNC. With your generous partnership, MANNA can continue to be there with food, anytime a family reaches out for help.
