Red Cross Offering Blood Donation Incentives

By Tony Collins Jun 9, 2023 | 6:31 AM

(Undated) — The American Red Cross is moving to incentivize the public to donate blood. The organization says that a shortfall in blood and platelet donations last month is cause for concern. Those who donate this month will be able to receive a ten-dollar gift card via email to a store of their choice. They will also be registered to win a backyard theater package. Your next chance to donate here in Crawford County is coming up next Wednesday the 14th at the Robinson Community Center. They will be in Oblong at the Municipal Building on Thursday the 15th.
