After a weekend filled with traffic accidents, Coffee Memorial is feeling the heat.

Those accidents have contributed to a shortage of blood at the center.  Normally Coffee Memorial is working to stock up for the Thanksgiving holiday but now they are facing an immediate need due to increased demand over the weekend.

The center is extending hours today and will be open until 7pm.  All blood donors will receive a free t-shirt and a gallon of milk.  The center is also raffling off prizes throughout the day.
