PAW PAW, Mich. (NEWSCHANNEL 3) - A little boy's brave fight against cancer has inspired a blood drive set for Wednesday in Paw Paw.
The drive was organized by Kelly Linder, and named in honor of her 5-year-old son Kevin.
He was diagnosed with cancer at age 2, and she says blood transfusions are one of the reasons he is still alive.
The Kevin Linder Celebrates Life Blood Drive is scheduled from 3:00 to 7:00 p.m. at Paw Paw Early Elementary School on Wednesday.
You can register to give or find another blood drive through the Michigan Blood website, which could be found by clicking here.
