Red Cross Says The Need for Blood is at a 20-Year High

The need for blood is at a 20-year high as January marks National Blood Donor Month.

 

Thanks to the bitter cold temperatures, blood drives across central Illinois had to be canceled. That's left hospitals with less than a day's supply of blood. Here's Kirby Winn, a spokesperson for Impact Life.

 

 

Blood is not the only need for the non-profit. According to Winn, Impact Life needs volunteers to drive blood from hospital to hospital.

 

To schedule a blood donation, visit blood center dot-org.
