Someone in western Washington needs a blood transfusion every two minutes! You can help by giving blood Nov. 9 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Columbia Credit Union Operations Center in Cascade Park (note, date changed from Nov. 10). Invite your family, friends and co-workers to join us for this vital community service. Take an hour of your time to help save lives!

Did you know that your family members can “inherit” their own Columbia membership by simply being related to you? It’s true! For just a few dollars, they can get started on a lifetime of value with Columbia’s innovative products and friendly service.
