American Red Cross: A Lifeline in Times of Crisis

Following a significant emergency blood shortage experienced during the summer months, the demand for blood remains critically high as we move into September. The American Red Cross is actively reaching out to potential donors, urging individuals to consider giving blood or platelets to help maintain a reliable blood supply as we transition into the fall season.

To facilitate the donation process, those interested can easily schedule an appointment by visiting RedCrossBlood.org. Alternatively, they can reach out by calling 1-800-RED CROSS or utilize the Red Cross Blood Donor App for convenience. Your participation can make a vital difference in ensuring that hospitals and patients have the necessary resources during this crucial time.
