The American Red Cross is holding a blood drive on Monday, October 16, from Noon to 4 pm, at the Bristol American Legion.
The Red Cross experienced a significant blood and platelet donation shortfall in August, contributing to the current blood and platelet shortage. To ensure the blood supply recovers, the Red Cross must collect 10,000 additional blood products each week over the next month to meet hospital and patient needs. $15 Amazon.com Gift Card by email for coming to give Oct. 1-20.
Book a time to give at one of these locations by downloading the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org or calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).
