Consider a life-saving blood donation this April, 'National Volunteer Month'

April is National Volunteer Month! The American Red Cross depends on the generosity of volunteers to ensure blood products are available when patients need them. The organization's blood drives and donation centers also depend on our incredible volunteers every single day.

FOR DRIVES THROUGH APRIL 7: The Red Cross knows this monstrous fact: Only 3 out of 100 people give blood. That’s why it teamed up with Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary for the new film Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire and invite donors to help stomp out this stat! Those who come give March 25-April 7 will get an exclusive Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire + Red Cross T-shirt, while they last. Details are available at RedCrossBlood.org/GXK.

FOR DRIVES APRIL 8-28: All who come to give April 8-28 will receive a $10 e-gift card to a merchant of choice. They will also automatically be entered for a chance to win one of two $7,000 gift cards. Details are available at RedCrossBlood.org/Spring.

Donors can schedule an appointment to donate using the Red Cross Blood Donor App, by visiting RedCrossBlood.org or by calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767). You can help the Red Cross educate others about the ongoing need for blood product donations by sharing this information about blood drives.
