Red Cross Blood Drive in Neillsville Today
Monday, December 14th, 2015 -- 10:34 AM
-The American Red Cross encourages individuals and organizations to give something that means something this winter by making a lifesaving blood donation or hosting a blood drive.Blood donations often decline from now to New Year's Day when holiday festivities pull people away from their donation appointments. Seasonal illnesses, such as colds and the flu, can also have a serious impact on blood donations.
In addition, there are fewer blood drives during the winter months when many hosting organizations postpone drives while people are traveling for the holidays. Severe winter weather may also cause scheduled blood drives to be canceled.
Despite the busy holiday season and threat of extreme freezing weather, the need for blood remains steady. You can help by giving blood today at the Neillsville American Legion from 11:30am-5:30pm and tomorrow at the Thorp Fire and Ambulance District Station from 12pm-6pm.
