Healthy community members are encouraged to help a critically low blood supply through participation in a couple upcoming blood drives.
An American Red Cross drive is coming up Thursday from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at the Rose E Schneider Family YMCA in Cranberry. Anyone who donates at these drives will receive a $20 Amazon.com e-gift card.
Anyone able to donate should make an appointment through the website of the American Red Cross, the Red Cross Blood Donor App, or by calling 1-800-RED-CROSS.
Then on Wednesday, September 4th from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. the Community Blood Bank will hold a Mobile Blood Drive in the parking lot of the Butler YMCA. Donors will receive a gift card and be entered to win a larger gift card. Although walk-ins are welcome, appointments are recommended.
