Williamson County Chamber: Red Cross Urges Blood Donations, Offers Donors Free Sport Clips Haircut

Press release from Williamson County Chamber:

September 7, 2021

The American Red Cross and our partner, Sport Clips Haircuts, are urging eligible donors to give blood this September to help tackle the needs of patients relying on lifesaving transfusions. As fall approaches, more donations are needed now to address the ongoing critical need for blood – especially as concern rises over a surge in COVID-19 cases that may further challenge the ability to collect enough blood for patients.

In thanks for supporting patients in need of transfusion, those who come to give blood or platelets Sept. 1-30 will receive a coupon for a free Sport Clips haircut via email. Additionally, those who make a point to give around the Labor Day holiday, Sept. 3-7, will receive a new, 16-ounce Red Cross campfire mug, while supplies last.

<Attached/below> is a news release with more details about how this partnership helps the Red Cross tackle the need for blood. [RADIO ONLY: Additionally, the following link can be used to download pre-recorded 15- and 30-second PSAs focused on the Sport Clips partnership, which can be used through Sept. 30 to encourage the community to give blood or platelets.]
