May is Trauma Awareness Month. The blood already on     shelves is what helps in an emergency. The Red Cross depends on the     generosity of volunteers to ensure blood products are available at a moment’s notice.

The Red Cross usually sees a dip in donations over summer when school is out and people are making time for fun and family.  Come to give in May to help patients enjoy a summer with loved ones.

The American Red Cross is in need of blood donations! Schedule a blood donation appointment by calling 1-800-RED CROSS or visit RedCrossBlood.org and enter: cityofplano. You may also download the Blood Donor App.

Warm hearts, great gifts! As their thanks for coming to give, donors will receive a 20 oz. Red Cross aluminum water bottle and sticker set, while supplies last.
