Red Cross urges blood donations in December
The American Red Cross urges eligible donors to donate blood this December, when donations decline but the needs of patients remain steady.
Those who donate blood or platelets Thursday through Jan. 7 will receive a long-sleeved Red Cross T-shirt, while supplies last.
In Washington County, visit American Legion Post 949, 1940 Route 2023, Monongahela, from noon to 5 p.m. Dec. 26.
In Greene County, donations will be accepted from 1 to 5:30 p.m. Dec. 27 at American Legion James Farrell Post 330, 676 E. High Street, Waynesburg.
Make an appointment to give blood by downloading the free Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting redcrossblood.org or calling 1-800-733-2767.
