INCREASE AWARENESS OF BLOOD DONATING

We learned, that donating blood may not only benefit the person who received the blood cells but also improve the health of the donor.
We learned this when we participated as volunteers at the American Red Cross and shared with some donors.
This learning matters because every single blood donation can help save up to 3 lives, and every 2 seconds, someone in America needs blood.
In light of this learning we need to realize the importance of donating blood and getting involved in the process.
