38th Annual Operation Blood Drive
Jun 26 all-day
Vari

The American Red Cross is excited to partner with WLOS News 13 and iHeart Radio for the 38th Annual Operation Blood Drive on Thursday, June 26th in Asheville, Hendersonville, Waynesville, Columbus, and Greenville, S.C.

“Generous blood donors are critical to ensuring lifesaving care is available the moment patients need it,” said Jerri Goldberg, Executive Director, Western North Carolina Chapter. “It’s important to have blood products on the shelves when every second counts.”

The need for blood doesn’t take a summer vacation — immediate access to blood products is a key part of safety throughout the summer and the entire year. Donors of all blood types are urged to schedule an appointment to give blood to ensure a stable blood supply for patients in need.

All presenting donors will receive an Operation Blood Drive T-shirt, while supplies last! Come to give and we’ll say thanks with a $15 Amazon.com Gift Card by email. PLUS, you’ll automatically be entered for a chance to win one of two $7,000 gift cards! (Our Western North Carolina chapter is also proud to showcase local foods from local restaurants and offer prizes throughout the day.)

Appointments can be made by downloading the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org and using sponsor code ‘OBD2025’, or calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).
