HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The American Red Cross is holding a blood drive through Wednesday at the First Presbyterian Church at 201 East Sherman in Hutchinson.
"We are there Tuesday, Nov. 19, 11 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and also on Wednesday, Nov. 20 from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m.," said Tiffani Davison with the Red Cross. "Tuesday and Wednesday appointments, there is definitely room, especially on Tuesday."
If you download the Red Cross Blood Donor app, you can make the process of donating go even smoother.
"The blood donor app is an awesome app," Davison said. "We encourage people to download that and use that on their phone. It does do a follow the path of your blood, so you can see where your blood goes, how it's processed. It also has some health factors involved where it will track your health history."
If you make an appointment to give blood, please keep it.
"We really really need you to try to make that appointment and show and come to that," Davison said. "If you do need to cancel your appointment, please do that because then that opens up that slot for someone else who might want to fill it. It also kind of lets us know about where we are on those appointments."
If you give during this drive, you can get two pair of custom FRIENDS and Red Cross socks, while supplies last.
