American Red Cross Blood Drive

Additional Information

The American Red Cross asks eligible donors to make an appointment to give blood to help ensure sufficient blood supplies are available for patients this holiday season.

Blood donations often decline during the holidays when donors get busy with travel and family gatherings, but the need for blood remains steady. Someone in the U.S. needs blood every two seconds.

In our area, there are two upcoming blood drives:

Hughesville

12/03/2014 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.  Northwest High School, 16215 Highway H

Sedalia

12/11/2014

2:00 p.m. to 6

Eligible donors with all types are needed, especially those with O negative, A negative and B negative. To learn more about donating blood and to schedule an appointment, download the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).
