Red Cross Spring Blood Drive

Red Cross Spring Blood Drive

The American Red Cross and McMenamins Mission Theater are once again joining forces for a Blood Drive at the Historic Mission Theater in NW Portland (1624 NW Glisan).

We are currently facing the worst national blood shortage in over a decade, with an overall 10 percent decline in blood donations since the start of the pandemic in March 2020. This has forced doctors to make difficult decisions about which patients get blood transfusions and which will need to wait until more becomes available. Blood transfusions are vital in treatments of many patients all over the country, and the current pandemic and flu season are only compounding the issue.

About Mission Theater

Experience a slice of Portland history. What is now known simply as “the Mission” was originally home to the Swedish Mission Covenant congregation in the early 20th century, and despite its staid, buttoned up appearance, this place now hosts live music, video dance nights and special events on select nights each month. 

History

The location that serves as one of McMenamins favorite neighborhood theater pubs was the locus of great spiritual zeal beginning in the 1890s. That's when the Swedish Evangelical Mission established its church here....

From a church to a theater-pub to event space, the Mission's history ain't exactly saintly. Click here for more info!
