General Blood Facts

The American Red Cross shelters, feeds and counsels victims of disasters, provides nearly half of the nation's blood supply, teaches lifesaving skills, and supports military members and their families.

We are a charitable organization -- not a government agency -- and depend on volunteers and the generosity of the American public to perform our humanitarian mission.
 
 
Give the Gift of Life

The Red Cross coordinates multiple blood drives every month. If you would like an emailed list

of each month's local blood drives, please send your email address and name to dustonj@usa.redcross.org. Or you can visit the Blood Drive Calendar which is posted each month to our website under the Give Blood tab.


Your Union County chapter surpassed its blood collection goal again last year. Thanks to dedicated blood donors and blood drive sponsors, 4,600 units of blood were collected. Our sincere apreciation goes to the many sponsors who hosted the drives and to the citizens who rolled up their sleeves to give the Gift of Life.


Our chapter collaborates with the Carolinas Blood Services region of the American Red Cross to promote blood donation and works to recruit businesses, schools, churches and other community groups to sponsor blood drives. If your business or organization would like to sponsor a drive, please call us at (704) 283-7402.
 
One pint of blood can save three lives. Do your part every eight weeks!
