Blood center gets fewer donations during holiday season, could face blood shortage

RHINELANDER - The Community Blood Center could face a blood shortage. The number of donations the center needs has gone down because of the holiday season.

Volunteers think the holiday season makes it difficult for people to find time to donate.
