Blood Drive This Week in Enfield

It’s not too late to become a part of the American Red Cross celebration of Red Cross Month in March.

There’s a blood drive being held in Enfield this week.

Since 1943, every president has designated March as Red Cross Month – a time to recognize those who support the Red Cross. Local communities depend on the Red Cross, which relies on donations of time, money and blood to fulfill its humanitarian mission.

A blood drive will be held Tuesday, March 31 from 1 to 6 p.m., at Lutheran Church of Our Redeemer, 20 North St.

To make an appointment to give blood, download the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).

Those who are unable to give blood can support blood donations by organizing a blood drive, volunteering to assist with Red Cross activities, or creating a SleevesUp virtual blood drive online at redcrossblood.org/SleevesUp and asking others to make a lifesaving donation.
