Lombard, IL – Residents are encouraged to roll up their sleeves this Veterans Day as the Village of Lombard hosts its annual fall blood drive on Tuesday, November 11, 2025.
According to the Village of Lombard, donations will be accepted at two community locations throughout the day. A mobile blood collection coach will be stationed on the lower level of Yorktown Center, outside of Von Maur, from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. Later in the day, donations will continue at the First Church of Lombard, 220 S. Main St., from 1:30 p.m. to 7 p.m.
The event is held in honor of Veterans Day, offering residents an opportunity to give back in a meaningful way while helping to maintain critical blood supplies ahead of the winter season. Walk-ins are welcome, but donors are encouraged to make an appointment in advance through the village’s website to reduce wait times.
Officials say every donation made can save up to three lives, providing a direct impact for hospitals and patients across Illinois. Participants are reminded to bring photo identification and to eat a healthy meal before donating.
