The pandemic should not stop you from donating blood to help save lives.
PHILADELPHIA - Blood donations have been impacted by the pandemic. The Red Cross is hoping more people roll up their sleeves to help save lives.
"Hopefully, she thinks this is a good thing," said Michael Greenberg. For the past two years he has hosted a blood drive along with the American Red Cross to help others and in memory of his wife Alison Burns-Greenberg.
"She was 17 days before her 40th birthday. She passed away September 1, 2019, from Leukemia," said Michael. It was about a year and half from the time doctors diagnosed Alison to the time she passed away.
