Red Cross Month is coming up in March. You could be a hero by organizing a blood drive.

Since 1943, the month of March has been designated Red Cross Month by every President. Heroes walk among us in many ways by giving blood, volunteering, taking lifesaving classes, and hosting blood drives in their communities.

The American Red Cross is now offering a Blood App. The Blood App allows you to find a local blood or platelet donation opportunity, schedule appointments and track your donation history. The Blood Donor App is available for download by texting BLOODAPP to 90999 or go to the American Red Cross website.

For more information call 1-800-RED CROSS to make an appoitnment to give.
