Join Us In Supporting Local Blood Drives

The A.D. Makepeace Company will continue to host monthly blood drives at Rosebrook in Wareham in 2026.
According to the American Red Cross, ADM’s 2025 drives resulted in donations of 261 units of blood.
Next month, Redbrook will be getting in on the effort too, with a Dana Farber blood drive scheduled for February 28. The next Rosebrook drive is February 9, and another will occur on March 18.
The company has been hosting the Rosebrook drives, in conjunction with the Red Cross, since the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic.
“We saw this as one small way we could help in the middle of a public health crisis,” said Jim Kane in a press release. “Today, the need is as urgent as ever. We are grateful to the ADM employees and other local residents who take the time to donate blood at Rosebrook.”
Find dates of the upcoming drives and schedule an appointment at redcrossblood.org, or click here to schedule an appointment through Dana Farber. The blood drives are held at the Rosebrook Event Center and the Redbrook Meeting House.
