5 Places to Donate Blood in November

Here are five local places to donate blood as we head into the holidays.

Approximately every two seconds a patient in the United States needs blood, according to the American Red Cross.

During the month of November, donors will be eligible to win a $250 gift card for a Thanksgiving feast. 

Walk-ins are always welcome, but donors are encouraged to schedule an appointment in advance by calling 1-800-RED CROSS or redcrossblood.org.
