Summer typically sees available blood supplies dip to dangerous levels, and this year matters have been made worse by the floods in Texas and New Jersey.
Natural disasters not only injure people, but they keep whole regions from holding their blood drives for weeks or months. Thus the national supply is depleted.
One of the best ways to help both our neighbors and the nation would be to donate blood at one of the three Emergency Drives around the first weekend in August.
Use the QR code, or go to www.bloodworksnw.org, or phone 1-800-398-7888 to make an appointment.
Spread the word through your social channels and encourage friends, neighbors, and family to join you in this life saving act.
