Dear fellow Hanoverians:
Many people want to give back to the community, but may not have a lot of
time to volunteer. The American Red Cross reminds eligible individuals that
in only about an hour, volunteer blood donors can help save lives and feel
instant gratification.
Blood is a perishable product that can only come from generous volunteers.
By donating blood, individuals can make a difference in the lives of
patients in their community and throughout the nation.
Upcoming blood donation opportunity:
Wednesday, March 18, 2015 from 1:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., Large First Floor
Conference Room, Hanover Town Hall, 550 Hanover Street
How to donate blood:
Simply download the American Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit
redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) to make an
appointment or for more information. All blood types are needed to ensure a
reliable supply for patients. A blood donor card or driver’s license or
two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Individuals who
are 17 years of age (16 with parental consent in some states), weigh at
least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate
blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger
also have to meet certain height and weight requirements.
