The American Red Cross asks eligible donors to make an appointment to give blood to help ensure
sufficient blood supplies are available for patients this holiday season.
Eligible donors with all types are needed, especially those with O negative, A negative and B negative.
To learn more about donating blood and to schedule an appointment, download the Red Cross Blood Donor
App, visit redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).
As extra encouragement to donate blood during the busiest time of November for many people, presenting
blood donors from Nov. 26 through Nov. 30 will receive a limited-edition Red Cross potholder stuffed
with unique celebrity chef recipes, while supplies last. Thanksgiving recipes are courtesy of Mario
Batali, Rocco DiSpirito, Alex Guarnaschelli and Mike Isabella.
