Red Cross Blood Drive – American Legion Post #9
May 8, 2023 @ 1:00 PM - 6:00 PM
Hey Winona, did you know trauma situations can quickly deplete hospital blood banks? May is Trauma Awareness Month, and the American Red Cross needs donors to help ensure a strong, stable blood supply is available at a moment’s notice. Type O-negative blood donors are especially critical for emergencies.
Type O-negative is the universal blood type and what emergency room personnel reach for when there is no time to determine a patient’s blood type in the most serious situations.
Type O-positive blood is the most used blood type because it can be transfused to Rh-positive patients of any blood type.
Simply stop by, or you can make an appointment by downloading the American Red Cross Blood Donor App, or visit RedCrossBlood.org, or you can call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767)
