From the Red Cross:
The American Red Cross asks people to schedule time to give blood or platelets now to keep the blood supply stable ahead of the busy holiday season. Just one generous hour of time could be the lifesaving difference for patients in need.
Rush in to give blood, platelets or plasma with the Red Cross Jan. 1-25 and you’ll automatically get a chance to score a Super Bowl LX getaway to the San Francisco Bay Area for you & a guest!
