(Red Cross)- Blood donors are needed to warm patient hearts this winter by giving blood to combat challenges like winter weather, which could impact the blood supply. As a thank-you, all who come to give blood Feb. 1-28, 2022, will receive a $10 Amazon.com Gift Card by email, thanks to Amazon. Restrictions apply.
