The American Red Cross wants you to Spring into action and help patients this month.

In response to the critical need for blood, the American Red Cross will have a blood drive this afternoon, at the Blue Point Free Will Baptist Church from Noon to 6 pm.

Donors, especially those with type O blood and those giving platelets, can help bolster the blood supply now by making an appointment to give in the coming weeks.  Make an appointment to donate by downloading the free Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting redcrossblood.org or calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).  A donor card, driver’s license, or two forms of ID are required at check-in.

Those who give blood or platelets through April 30th will get a Red Cross Shirt.  Plus get a chance at a $5K gift card when you donate in April, there will be 3 winners.

The next Blood drive in Flora will be at the Flora Oddfellows Lodge on Thursday from Noon to 5 pm.  Then there will be a blood drive on Wednesday, April 30th at the Clay City High School.
