Give Blood In Havertown This Holiday Season

HAVERTOWN, PA — The holiday season is the giving season, and what better gift to give than the gift of life?

This season, the American Red Cross is urging eligible donors to be the lifeline for patients in need this holiday season by making an appointment to give blood or platelets.

There are several upcoming drives in Havertown where you can donate.

They are:

• 11/27/2019: 10 a.m. - 3 p.m., Haverford Township Free Library, 1601 Darby Road
• 11/29/2019: 10 a.m. - 3 p.m., Krispy Kreme, 1305 West Chester Pike
• 11/29/2019: 1 p.m. - 6 p.m., Union Methodist Church, 200 Brookline Blvd.
• 12/11/2019: 2:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m., Llanerch Fire Company, 107 W. Chester Pike
• 12/13/2019: 1:30 p.m. - 6:30 p.m., Manoa Community Church, 153 N. Eagle Road
• 12/17/2019: 1 p.m. - 6 p.m., Bon Air Fire Company, 541 Royal Ave.

While helping to save lives is likely motivation enough, those who come out to give Nov. 18 through Dec. 18 will also receive a $5 Amazon Gift Card via email, courtesy of Suburban Propane.

Additionally, those who come to give Nov. 27 through Nov. 30 will receive an exclusive long-sleeved T-shirt, while supplies last.

As schedules fill with holiday parties, shopping and fun with friends and family, many blood and platelet donors delay giving.
