Every two seconds someone in the U.S. needs blood. It is essential for surgeries, cancer treatment, chronic illnesses, and traumatic injuries. Summer is traditionally a difficult time to collect enough blood to meet patient needs. Accidents, medical emergencies, and chronic blood conditions don’t take a break. Patients need blood every day. The blood supply must be continuously replenished to help prevent shortages during the coming weeks and months. The American Red Cross is facing a severe blood shortage and continues to face lower than normal donations due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
A-TEK invites our network of employees, clients, friends, and families to join us and the American Red Cross in our Sleeves Up Campaign. Click “PLEDGE TO GIVE BLOOD” button above to make a pledge and schedule an appointment in your area.
How it works:
1) Pledge to donate through the A-TEK Sleeves Up Campaign between June 13 and August 31, 2022 by clicking on the “Pledge to give blood” button above.
