Summer
activities and vacations are impacting blood and platelet donations.
Donations
were down approximately 10 percent in June, resulting in about 50,000 fewer
donations than expected. You can help the American prevent a shortage of blood
and platelet donations this summer by doing more than scheduling an appointment
to give. Help spread the word about the need for healthy donors this summer and
invite friends and family to donate blood or platelets.
All blood
types are needed, but especially types O negative, A negative and B negative.
Please schedule your appointment today for a blood drive convenient
to you here.
As you make your summer stories, please don't forget to
give a story as well. Watch inspiring stories of those who have benefited from
the donations of donors like you on redcrossblood.org/summer and
share your story.
