Red Cross Urges Blood Donations

The American Red Cross is putting out the call for blood donors as supplies typically decrease during the winter months plus COVID-19 has resulted in fewer donations. Regional communications director Jonathan McNamera tells the Rappahannock Record they are urging healthy individuals to give blood or platelets this month. As a thank-you for helping ensure a stable blood supply, those who come to give this February will receive a $5 Amazon.Gift Card. Go to RedCrossBlood.org/Together for detailas.
