About the event
Join “The Kindest Red” Sickle Cell Disease Foundation Blood Drive with the Red Cross.
About 100,000 people in the United States have sickle cell disease.
People with sickle cell disease may need as many as 100 units of blood each year.
Your blood donations could help alleviate the symptoms of someone living with sickle cell disease or even help save their life.
The Kindest Red is a monthly blood drive campaign to help people living with sickle cell disease. We are making it easy for donors to sign up at the Red Cross in your area.
