Please join us at the American Red Cross St. Louis Area Chapter Headquarters and donate blood on Wednesday, October 19, 2011, from 8:30am-12:30pm.
To schedule an appointment, please contact Marie Major at
mmajor@redcrossstl.org , call 314.516.2882, or go to
www.redcrossblood.org and type in the sponsor code STLARC. We’re located at 10195 Corporate Square Drive, St. Louis, MO 63132.
I’ve been asked many times, “I’m on medication, can I still donate?” In general, most medications are acceptable, including over the counter or homeopathic medications, herbal remedies, and nutritional supplements. There may be designated waiting periods for certain medications. To learn more about these waiting periods and other questions on donor eligibility, please contact the Donor and Client Support Center at 1-866-236-3276 or check online at
www.redcrossblood.org.
Did you know…?
- Every two seconds someone in the U.S. needs blood.
- More than 38,000 blood donations are needed every day.
- Blood cannot be manufactured – it can only come from generous donors.
We hope to see you at the Blood Drive on Wednesday, October 19th, from 8:30am-12:30pm!
The need is constant. The gratification is instant. Give Blood.
