The American Red Cross has announced a pair of blood drives in the city of Manitowoc for this Thursday, December 15th.
The first is set for Shoreline Credit Union at 4400 Calumet Avenue from noon until 4:00 p.m.
There’s also an opportunity for blood donors later that afternoon at Grace Lutheran Church, 2426 North Rapids Road between the hours of 2:00 and 6:00 p.m.
There are several ways to make an appointment to give blood: simply download the American Red Cross Blood Donors App, visit RedCrossBlood.org, call 1-800-RED CROSS or, enable the Blood Donor Skill on any Alexa Echo device.
Blood and platelet donors can save time at their next donation by using RapidPass to complete their pre-donation reading and health history questionnaire online on the day they’ll donate before arriving at the blood drive.
