The American Red Cross continues to have an urgent need for blood donors of all blood types to give before the Labor Day holiday, even after many more donors stepped up to give, following an urgent call issued in late July. Donors with types O negative, B negative and A negative blood are especially needed. 

All donors who come out to donate blood Aug. 30 through Sept. 1, will receive a Red Cross mason jar tumbler, while supplies last. 

ID is required at check-in. Individuals who are 17 years of age, weigh at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. 

To make an appointment or for more information about donating, call 1-800-733-2767 or visit redcrossblood.org.
