American Red Cross Blood Drive

The need is constant. The gratification is instant. Give blood!

Please come donate blood! With
September being Sickle Cell Disease Awareness Month, there’s even more reasons
to roll up your sleeve and give what you have to give. Sickle cell affects 90,000 to 100,000 people in
the United States. Patients with sickle cell disease often need
blood, sometimes up to 100 transfusions a year. Your blood donation can offer a lifetime of hope
for patients with a lifelong disease.

Call 1-800-RED-CROSS or visit www.redcrossblood.org and use Sponsor Code: 44240 to schedule your appointment today!
