Closing A Gap In The Blood Supply

Wikimedia

Autumn is closing in, and blood banks need to close a gap in blood supply. 

Blood supplies frequently dip in the summer, as regular blood donors skip appointments for vacations and other reasons. 

The Red Cross in the Northwest is beating the drum to bring in donors. 

We hear about the level of need, and how long it has lasted. 

To donate: 1-800-RED-CROSS or redcrossblood.org.
