The Times
As the American Red Cross responds to Hurricane Florence, providing food, shelter and comfort to those affected, individuals outside the affected areas are urged to help by giving blood or platelets to care for patients in the storm’s path and across the country. People can also help by making a financial donation to support relief efforts.
Donors of all blood types are urged to help restore hope to patients across the country by making an appointment to give blood or platelets. Appointments can be made by using the Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org or calling 1–800-RED CROSS. Financial donations can be made online, by calling the number, or texting the word FLORENCE to 90999 to make a $10 donation.
