In March, 2020, I started giving blood routinely, though it’s always a crap shoot as to whether I have enough iron. I hate shots and am afraid of needles, but it seemed like something useful I could do in the face of the pandemic. Finally, a way to be sure that I can help save lives. I’m so glad that the American Red Cross is now more inclusive, accepting gay men as blood donors and I encourage all of my friends and family to keep, or start, donating blood. Thanks.
Challenge your friends (or anyone for that matter) to a friendly competition! Who will win the battle to do the most social good for your community?
Put your virtual blood drive campaign against one or even multiple other campaigns to see who can recruit more blood donors for the American Red Cross.
