Save lives!
By Daily Dose
Trauma season is in full swing and the blood supply is
critically low; your donation can make a difference in emergencies, surgeries,
and for cancer patients. There is a critical need for Type O donors.
You can save up to three
lives in only one hour every time you give blood so boost your good karma and
donate today.
Summer is the most
difficult time for blood centers throughout the country—and here in Rhode
Island. School breaks, increased travel, and busy summer schedules have caused
a drop in donations during the critical summer months.
If you have questions
about your eligibility to donate, you can email the medical team at medicalstaff@ribc.org. They can also be
reached by phone at 401.453.8383.
