🩸 Blood Drive in Honor of Sophia Andrade
On Tuesday, July 15th, from 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM, Gym Ventura will host its annual CHLA blood drive in loving memory of Sophia Andrade — a former member who courageously battled Neuroblastoma from age 2 until her passing at age 4. This year, Sophia would have turned 16.

Held each year around her birthday, the blood drive honors her legacy while supporting CHLA’s urgent summer blood supply needs and raising funds for Neuroblastoma research.

✨ Parents donating can leave their children for supervised free play in the gym
🎟️ Raffle prizes
🍔 Food vendors on site

Walk-ins are welcome, or appointments can be made in advance. It’s a powerful way for the community to give back and remember Sophia. Make your appointment to donate blood here:https://www.chladonateblood.org/donor/schedules/drive_schedule/1820
