Donors Needed at June 12th Red Cross Blood Drive at Stanbridge College
Stanbridge College presents its quarterly American Red Cross Blood Drive on June 12th! As we approach the summer months, it is critical to help provide donations to those in need of blood transfusions.
According to the Red Cross Orange County, our community blood supply, especially the O-negative and B-negative blood types, has dropped well below adequate levels. To prevent the blood supply from falling even further, the Red Cross needs your help.
Hospitals and trauma centers trust the Red Cross to deliver potentially lifesaving blood for accident victims, sick children, and cancer patients in need of transfusions. Again, we need your help – not just to stabilize our depleted blood supply – but to immediately help patients in need.
