Dear fellow Hanoverians:
The supply of type O negative blood at the American Red Cross has
dropped to critical levels.
Type O negative blood is always in high demand because it can be
transfused to patients with any blood type, especially in emergency
situations. While all blood types are needed during the summer months,
the Red Cross urges those eligible donors with blood type O negative
to make and keep appointments to give blood this summer. They highly
encourage all type O negative blood donors who meet the eligibility
requirements to double the difference by becoming a double red cell
donor. If eligible, you can give two donations at once.
There are two opportunities to donate in Hanover this summer.
*Friday, July 15th *
98.5 – The Sports Hub at the Hanover Mall
1:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m.
*Saturday, July 16th *
Hanover Mall – Macy’s Wing
10:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.
Donate blood in July and receive a coupon for a free carton of ice
cream at Friendly’s.
To make an appointment, contact the Red Cross at 1-800-Red Cross or
www.RedCrossBlood.org
