Besides all things Red Cross, my life basically revolves around the St. Louis Cardinals. So you can only imagine how exciting it is when my two favorite teams partner up for one great cause.

 

The American Red Cross and the St. Louis Cardinals have again joined forces for their annual “Step Up to the Plate and Donate” blood drive happening this Tuesday at the Center of Clayton. Anyone that stops by and attempts to donate will receive an exclusive Red Cross Cardinals T-shirt and be entered into a raffle for cool Cardinal prizes (thanks to sponsors KSDK and KTRS). And as if the t-shirt and prizes weren’t enough, there will be appearances from Cardinal players and Fredbird, himself. I can’t imagine donating blood and saving lives gets any more exciting than that!!

 

So make sure you stop by the Center of Clayton tomorrow, Tuesday June 30^th, between 10 a.m. and 7 p.m. to donate blood and be in on all of the Cardinal fun. And if you can’t make it out to Clayton, the Red Cross will be collecting donations at several other locations on both June 30^th and July 1^st.

To find out if you are eligible to donate blood, or to schedule an appointment, check out the Missouri Illinois Blood Services Region Website. Walk-ins are also welcome.
