Blood drive locations, dates
The American Red Cross needs your help to save lives. Seasons may change, but the need for blood is constant.
There’s still no substitute for human blood. In hospitals across our region, patients receive life-saving blood almost every minute of every day. The Red Cross depends on healthy, caring volunteers to donate blood for patients who need it.
Your blood could save a newborn baby in desperate need of a complete blood transfer. It could support someone’s father through open-heart surgery or make all the difference to a mother battling cancer. Please help by giving at one of the following sites.
Reminder: 16-year-olds can donate blood, but they must have a parent or legal guardian with them and photo ID.
For more information, call Sherry Smith at 704-633-3854, ext 105.
