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.
There's a severe blood shortage, and right now, patients across the country are relying on generous blood donors like you. Every 2 seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood — and there’s no substitute for human generosity. They need you! Please give ASAP: https://t.co/YzzSTEWe9g pic.twitter.com/vyabndPDAf
