Red Cross Announces
Blood Drives
On September 11, 2001 the
American people suffered a ter
rible tragedy. Within 15 minutes
people were already lined up at
the South Georgia Community
Blood Center to donate blood. As
throughout the country, the
people of South Georgia have
been overwhelming in their re
sponse to offer help. The Red
Cross has seen large numbers of
donors who patiently waited
hours to donate blood and the
agency stands committed to the
effort of meeting this nation's
blood needs.
Red Cross President, Dr.
Bernadine Healy has indicated
that The White House wants the
Red Cross to continue to provide
Americans an opportunity to do
nate blood. The agency must be
prepared for the next emergency
and ready to help victims like
those affected by this most recent
disaster- as well as those who
may suffer from the tragedies of
tomorrow, next week, next month
and next year.
Blood Drives will be conducted
in the following locations:
Thursday, October 4 at Westo-
ver High School, 9am-lpm.
Friday, October 5 at Monroe
Comprehensive High School,
9am-l pm
Without unforeseen disasters,
the Red Cross needs 1300 pints
of blood per day in this region to
keep hospitals with blood for
people needing surgery, for treat
ment of cancer, leukemia or blood
disorders, and for people who
have emergencies.
The American Red Cross appre
ciates the community’s support
and commitment to its mission in
meeting the needs of all patients
with the right blood product at the
right time.
