The Times
The American Red Cross urges people to share their good health this holiday season by donating blood or platelets for patients in need.
A decline in donations occurs from Thanksgiving to New Year’s Day when donors are busy with holiday activities and travel. However, medical treatments and emergencies that require blood don’t stop for the holidays. The Red Cross is thanking those who carve out time to give Nov. 21–24 with a long-sleeved T-shirt, while supplies last.
Make an appointment to donate blood or platelets by downloading the free Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org or calling 1–800-RED CROSS.
Upcoming donation opportunities include the following:
— Nov. 17 from 7 a.m. to noon at Sheraton Hotel, 400 Oxford Valley Road in Langhorne
— Nov. 21 from 2 to 7 p.m. at Ramada Inn, 6201 Bristol Pike in Levittown
— Nov. 21 from 2 to 7 p.m. at Best Western, 3499 Street Road in Bensalem
— Nov. 26 from 3 to 8 p.m. at Uptown String Band, 1005 Avenue D in Langhorne
