Summer? Why it's only half-way through May and I'm already thinking about summer? Yes, I am thinking about summer. During this time of year, when colleges are empty, high schools are desolate and the beaches are full, blood drives nearly dry up for a few months.
Having the ability of donating blood every 56 days, means that at least once during the summer months, you could take an hour of time to donate blood - or perhaps organize a summer bash to bring in your friends to help save more lives.
Do you know someone that has cancer? More than likely during the course of their treatment, they will require transfusions. Wouldn't it be nice to hold a blood drive in their honor and save many lives in the process?
This summer, try something different and organize or support your local blood drive, you never know who's life you might save. You can find your local American Red Cross by visiting www.redcrossblood.org to learn more.
