February 22, 2022 – The Red Cross is experiencing its worst blood shortage in 10+ years. Patient care is at risk. Please come donate blood in our spacious hall. Link below. Goal is 37 people over the 5 hours (about 7/hour or 3 people/time). Please Share this with a Friend. Donors will receive a $10 Amazon .com Gift Card via email. Sign up here https://www.redcrossblood.org/give.html/drive-results… There are two choices: Blood and Power Red. (Whole) BLOOD is the most flexible type of donation. It can be transfused in its original form, or used to help multiple people when separated into its specific components of red cells, plasma and platelets. The entire process takes about one hour and 15 minutes; the actual donation of a pint of whole blood unit takes eight to 10 minutes. During a POWER RED donation, you give a concentrated dose of red cells, the part of your blood used every day for those needing transfusions as part of their care. Power red takes a little more time.
