American Red Cross Blood Drive Thursday, February 17, 2010

Richard Bingham, Neighbor

Since January 1, winter weather in DC and the Northeast has created a situation where a total of over 16,000 potential blood and platelet donations have not been collected.  Blood products help save people’s lives; whether it’s a blood transfusion for a car accident victim, platelets for cancer patients, or frequent transfusions for sickle cell patients. The American Red Cross is hosting a blood drive at the Bethesda Chevy Chase Regional Services Center on Thursday, February 17rd 2011 from 09:00 AM-03:00 PM.
