Red Cross seeks more blood donors
MARION - The American Red Cross says the blood supply continues to face challenges from the ongoing pandemic and extreme winter weather that impacted much of the U.S. last month. More donors, especially those with type O blood, are needed.
A blood drive will be held from noon to 6 p.m. on March 29 at the Alber Red Cross Center, 1849 Summerset Drive, Marion.
Schedule a blood donation appointment by downloading the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org, calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or enabling the Blood Donor Skill on any Alexa Echo device. All who give March 15-26 will receive a Red Cross T-shirt, while supplies last.
