The 36th Annual All-Reno Radio Blood Drive wrapped up at the Atlantis Casino today.

Vitalant teamed up with over a dozen local radio stations to get the word out about the importance of blood donation.

Vitalant says that this is typically a slow time of the year for blood donations. 

Organizers were hoping to collect over 350 units of blood over the course of two days.

According to Vitalant - every two seconds, someone in the United States needs blood. 

Just one unit of blood can save up to three lives.
