This spring, it’s critically important for the Red Cross to maintain an available blood supply for those who rely on transfusions for treatment. Donated blood has a limited shelf life, so supplies must be constantly replenished to ensure a sufficient inventory.
A simple act can lead to lifesaving care. To schedule an appointment to donate blood, platelets or plasma, download the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit RedCrossBlood.org or call 1-800-CROSS (1-800-733-2767).
