Our family has benefitted immensely this year by blood donations. An aunt needs blood from time to time. A sister-in-law was struck by a car and suffered extensive injuries. My grandson was severely injured in a farming accident. Without receiving blood they well may not be alive today.
One blood donation can help save up to three lives. That means a lot to patients in need, but it took on a new meaning recently.
Without volunteer blood donors, our story might have had a different ending. Help me reach my goal and ensure that patients receive the life saving blood they need. Make and keep an appointment to give blood to the American Red Cross.
What you donate today won’t be “on the shelf” for a couple weeks. We never know what tomorrow may bring. The life you help save may be someone you love.
Thank you❤

Just got done donating again. I timed it today, from the time I got on the table until I got off was 20 minutes. The greatest donation you can give. Free to do, all of it goes to the donor, not a huge percentage going to anyone else. Give life, give blood!❤
I know not everyone can donate. If you can, and do, thank you. If you can’t, you can still share the word. I get absolutely nothing but satisfaction out of this. It takes me less than half an hour once I’m on the table. Aside from the needle prick, there is no pain or discomfort. It costs me nothing but my time. Knowing that other people helped save my family members is what spurs me on. It’s my way of saying “Thank you,” to pay it forward. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
