TMSA gives back to the community thru Red Cross
Posted on 02/26/2023
TMSA Triad will host a community blood drive with the American Red Cross on April 28 from 14:00 to 18:30 at TMSA Triad Gym.
For more information or to make an appointment to donate, call (336) 676 5350 ext 101 or sign up online at https://www.redcrossblood.org/give.html/drive-results?zipSponsor=TMSA .
Blood is routinely transfused to patients with cancer and other diseases, premature babies, organ transplant recipients and trauma victims, according to the Red Cross.
“The short amount of time it takes to donate can mean a lifetime to a patient with a serious medical condition. We urge eligible donors to join us in the selfless act of giving blood.”
Donors of all blood types are needed, especially those with types O negative, B negative and A negative. According to the Red Cross, type O negative is the universal blood type that can be safely transfused to anyone, and is often used to treat trauma patients.
