Donate Blood (American Red Cross)

1–800-GIVELIFE

It can be hard to find ways to give when we are jug­gling moth­er­hood. A kid free hour on the week­end that involves rest­ing and eat­ing cook­ies is not a bad option.

The Red Cross actively pur­sues my hus­band. They track his dona­tion dates and as soon as he is eli­gi­ble again they call per­sis­tently until he sched­ules a new appoint­ment. Since they want noth­ing to do with me (lived in the UK, must carry mad cow dis­ease!), I fig­ure I can help by remind­ing you to give blood. So, please, sched­ule an appoint­ment at a blood drive near you!
