Red Cross Blood Drive at St. Stephen’s – Aug 27 10am – 3:30pm

St. Stephen’s is hosting a Red Cross blood drive on Tuesday August 27th from 10 in the morning until 3:30 pm

Here are some informational bullets from the Red Cross….

We’re in an emergency need for blood right now. Blood is going out far faster than it is coming in and this can have an immediate impact on patient care.
The need for blood is constant. Every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood.
Blood can be safely donated every 56 days and Power Reds can be donated every 112 days.
Donated blood is perishable. Red blood cells have a shelf life of only 42 days.
All presenting donors will receive a free t-shirt, and a $5 Amazon gift card.
