The Gift of Life: Blood and Platelet Donations Needed

Thanksgiving is just around the corner and the Christmas shopping season is already underway.  In the midst of all the planning and preparations, please remember that the American Red Cross wants a place on your gift list; specifically, they’re hoping you’ll make a donation of blood or platelets during the next few weeks.

Those who come to donate through November 17th will get a $10 e-gift card to a merchant of their choice, plus they will be automatically entered for a chance to win one of two $7,000 gift cards. Terms apply.

It’s been 30 years since the iconic show FRIENDS first aired, and to celebrate the anniversary, those who give blood or platelets November 18th through December 8th will receive two pairs of FRIENDS + Red Cross socks. Donors can keep a pair and gift a pair! More details HERE.

Those willing to donate blood or platelets this holiday season can book an appointment HERE, or be calling 1-800 RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).
