The American Red Cross continues to experience a national blood emergency as remnants of hurricanes and other severe weather events across the country have further complicated efforts to rebuild the nation’s blood supply.

Help keep lifesaving blood products stocked on hospital shelves and book a time to give blood or platelets by visiting RedCrossBlood.org, calling 1-800-RED CROSS or by using the Red Cross Blood Donor App.

As a thank-you through Sept 30th: all who come to give will receive a $15 e-gift card to a merchant of choice. Visit RedCrossBlood.org/Fall for details.
