Red Cross September Blood Drives

Presented By McDonald’s, I’m Lovin’ It!

As we look toward fall, we know blood donor availability can be a challenge as kids head back to school and people celebrate the Labor Day holiday. Donors are needed now to ensure blood is available when patients need it. Do you know someone who has never given before? Ask them to make an appointment with you.

All those who come out to give blood in September will receive a coupon via email for a free haircut, courtesy of Sport Clips Haircuts. Terms and conditions apply: rcblood.org/Sport-Clips.

Plus, when you come to give blood Sept. 3rd-7th, you’ll get a new 16 oz. Red Cross campfire mug, while supplies last.

Plus when you help the Red Cross tackle the need by donating blood Sept. 13th-30th, you’ll receive a limited-edition college football T-shirt, while supplies last.
