Blood Donation - American Red Cross Blood Drive

Date:
Monday, January 18, 2021 - 8:00am - Sunday, January 24, 2021 - 6:00pm Volunteer to donate blood on King Day. The best blood match for patients often comes from donors of the same race or similar ethnicity. Together we must increase the number of blood donors from all racial and ethnic groups. Sickle cell disease occurs in 1 in 365 births of babies of African descent and 1 in 16,300 Latino births. The American Red Cross and supporters like you can help connect with donors that best meet the needs of patients of all backgrounds. All presenting donors this January will receive a coupon redeemable for a FREE medium Dunkin' Hot Coffee and a Classic Donut (excludes fancies & specialty donuts)!
Note: The American Red Cross is testing all blood product donations for COVID-19 antibodies. Plasma from antibody-positive blood donations may be used to help current coronavirus patients in need. Only those feeling healthy should present to donate and appointments are strongly encouraged. For more information about this, see here.
