Local residents will have an opportunity to help the American Red Cross with a critical blood shortage this week.
On Monday, from 1 to 6:30 p.m. a blood drive is planned for the Cranberry Highlands Golf Course in Cranberry Township.
This event is organized by the Cranberry Township Sunrise Rotary and all donors must wear a mask. Only donors will be permitted in the blood drive area. Some people who have not been allowed to donate in the past could now be eligible. All donors will receive a $5 Amazon gift card by email.
Those interested or able to donate are asked to make an appointment by downloading the American Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting the Red Cross website, or calling 1-800-RED CROSS.
