Did you know, that in the time it takes you to read this blog post (let’s say it takes you two minutes), 60 people around the country will be in need of blood? Every two seconds, someone needs blood — the need is constant and you can help!
Our chapter will be hosting a blood drive this Thursday, April 29 from 11:30 am to 5:30 pm. Stop in at our chapter (1050 Fuller Ave. NE, in Grand Rapids) and give a pint!
Don’t be like our four-legged friend in this old-timey photo from a 1950 Red Cross blood drive in Lebanon, Kentucky — give a pint! (Plus, you get cookies. How can you say no when there are cookies involved?)
