The Bridgehampton School will host a blood drive on Monday, but with a twist: For every person who donates blood that day, the New York Blood Center will make a donation to Feeding New York State, a nonprofit that supports two Long Island food pantries, Island Harvest and Long Island Cares.

The blood drive is from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the school. Walk-in donors will be welcomed, but appointments are recommended and can be made by calling 1-800-933-2566 or emailing [email protected]. All donors must wear a mask.

More information is at nybc.org/save1feed1.
