Fourth of July Red Cross Blood Drives: Be proud to be a donor at Town Center at Cobb (July 3-5)

Celebrate the freedom to give blood this Fourth of July weekend!

The American Red Cross will host two blood drives at Town Center at Cobb this Fourth of July weekend from Friday, July 3 through Sunday, July 5.

Why get involved? Here are some quick facts about the process, courtesy of the American Red Cross:

· Blood cannot be manufactured — it can only come from generous donors.

· Blood donation is a simple four-step process: registration and medical history, mini-physical, donation and refreshments.

· Shortages of all blood types usually occur during the summer and winter holidays—so now is the time to give!

· One donation can help save the lives of up to three people!

· The American Red Cross supplies approximately 45% of the nation’s blood supply.
