As a special thank-you to donors for helping address the need for blood during the critical post-holiday time, those who come to give through Jan. 25 will be automatically entered for a chance to win a trip for two to Super Bowl LX in the San Francisco Bay Area. See RedCrossBlood.org/SuperBowl for details.
The Red Cross is also teaming up with Pro Football Champion and blood donor Saquon Barkley to urge donors to make appointments now to help save lives this winter. Photos featuring Barkley giving lifesaving blood are available.
If you’re unable to give blood or platelets, consider making a financial donation to support the organization’s lifesaving mission at redcross.org.
