CHAMPAIGN, IL (Chambana Today) – As spring travel ramps up, the American Red Cross is calling on individuals to donate lifesaving blood or platelets. Seasonal events like spring break and holidays can make it difficult to keep donation appointments, but the Red Cross emphasizes that every donation is critical to patient care.
To sweeten the deal, all donors who give blood in April will automatically be entered for a chance to win one of three $5,000 gift cards. Additionally, from April 1-13, donors will receive a $15 Amazon.com Gift Card by email. Those who donate between April 14-30 will receive an exclusive Red Cross T-shirt, while supplies last.
