March Is Red Cross Month, Here’s Local Donation Info – and Yes, ‘There’s an App for That’!
Giving the gift of blood is very personal for me and here's why.
Towards the end of my mom's life she developed a form of Leukemia that would eventually claim her life. BUT for many months prior she needed numerous blood transfusions. My mom's birthday is March 26th...making March Red Cross month even more poignant for me.
I will also be eternally grateful to The American Red Cross! And thank you for "Giving the gift of Blood".
Since 1943 every President has designated March as Red Cross Month. Here's info on Local Drives:
Newtown : March 26th from 1 - 6p at the Newtown Municipal Bldg., 3 Primrose Street
Danbury : March 29th from 9a-2p Danbury Hospital RSM, Hospital Avenue
