Frisco – In partnership with the American Red Cross, Medical City Frisco is hosting a blood drive on Friday, April 8 from 10:00 am – 3:30 pm.
Blood supplies have previously been at critically low levels during the pandemic and the need for blood is constant.
The Red Cross bus will be located in front of the hospital’s Medical Office Building at 5575 Frisco Square Blvd. in Frisco. Community members may sign-up to donate online or by calling 1-800-RED-CROSS. While appointments are encouraged, walk-ins will be accepted depending on spot availability.
“We are proud to partner with the American Red Cross for such an important cause,” says Patrick Rohan, Medical City Frisco CEO. “Donating blood is an excellent way to make an impact on people in our community and across the country.”
“One blood donation can help up to three different people,” says Kay Raleigh, laboratory supervisor at Medical City Frisco. “The blood community relies on the generosity of donors, so it is vital that we participate in these types of life-saving efforts.”
