Donate blood and help maintain a stable blood supply. Every day the Red Cross must collect more than 13,000 pints of blood for patients across the country. Encourage family and friends to join you in donating on Friday, September 13th, from 12:00 to 5:00 at Sequoya Library. A pint of blood from you could be a gift of life for someone in need. Download the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS to learn more and make an appointment.
September is Sickle Cell Awareness Month! In the U.S., more than 100,000 people are estimated to be living with sickle cell disease. Your donation can be the difference for sickle cell warriors needing blood transfusions.
All who come to give blood will get an exclusive American Red Cross raglan T-shirt, while supplies last!
The Red Cross encourages donors to answer screening questions on the day of their donation through Rapid Pass: redcrossblood.org/RapidPass
