Sales, discounts and deals abound this season. But what about making time for real saving … life saving! In about an hour, you can give a gift that can’t be found in stores or online – a blood donation.

The need for lifesaving blood doesn’t pause for the holidays. Between Thanksgiving and the new year, more than 1 million units of blood may be transfused to patients in the U.S. The American Red Cross is calling for donors of all blood types – especially type O – to give this December to help prevent a shortage.

‘Tis the season to give AND receive!

Come to give Nov. 28-Dec. 15 and get a $10 Amazon.com Gift Card by email, thanks to Amazon. (Terms apply. Visit RedCrossBlood.org/together.)

As a special thank-you for your help around the winter holidays, you’ll receive an exclusive Red Cross long-sleeved T-shirt when you come to give Dec. 16-Jan. 2, while supplies last.

Don’t wrap up 2022 without making an appointment to donate! Schedule now by downloading the free Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org or calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).
