We value our blood donors, and look forward to you all joining us in becoming part of the American Red Cross family effective November 1, 2018. Every donation has the potential to go further and impact more lives. Strong blood supply. Strong community. Stronger together.
The phone is ringing... and it's for you! Answer the call and help out someone in need with your blood donation. #FridayFeeling
When people give, people live! It's time to roll up our sleeves & get to work 💪 #WednesdayWisdom

This month we have been spreading #ChildhoodCancerAwareness. It is the last day of September, but you can give hope to children all year round by donating blood or platelets. #GoGold 💛
#Didyouknow? 💡Nothing can replace your life-saving donation. Every time a patient needs blood, it must come from a blood donor. Our blood is truly unique, and cannot be re-created using modern medicine.

The first half of our Universities Unite blood drive at @UVA was a success! Next week, we will be collecting blood at @virginia_tech campus. Together, these students are making a difference! #FridayFeeling
Help children battling cancer see the light at the end of the tunnel. You can give hope to #ChildhoodCancer patients by scheduling an appointment to donate platelets. It takes a little more time, but it'll mean the world to a child 💛#GoGold
Schedule an appointment to donate platelets today in honor of #ChildhoodCancerAwareness! 💛
Platelets are cells that help your blood to clot. Leukaemia, other blood cancers, and treatments like chemotherapy, can cause the number of platelets to reduce. This increases the risk of serious bleeding, and is why many people need platelet transfusions. platelets.blood.co.uk

Saladin's mom says, “He loves his nurses because they make him feel comfortable. They are very patient with him as he recently began blood transfusion treatments on a monthly basis. Transfusions have made the difference." #sicklecell101 #sicklecell

Is Leona Lewis a one-hit-wonder because of the major success of "Bleeding Love?" We always liked to think she was advocating for blood donation. 😉 #NationalOneHitWonderDay
