Did you know that less than 10% of Americans donate blood?
January is #NationalBloodDonorMonth! It takes less than an hour to change the world! Schedule your donation today!
Fact: 50% of the nation’s blood supply comes from blood drives. The American Red Cross needs 13,000 blood donations daily to maintain an appropriate blood supply.
Donating blood saves lives
Someone needs blood every few seconds in the United States. And more than 4.5 million Americans would die every year without lifesaving blood transfusions. You can make a difference. Every pint of donated blood has the potential to save three lives.
Dogs can donate, too!
Your dog can donate blood, too. Check with your veterinarian and the Humane Society to ensure you know the local rules and regulations for this type of donation.
So SleevesUp and help us reach our goal. Make and keep an appointment to give blood to the American Red Cross.
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.
