The American Red Cross will host a blood drive from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. Tuesday at the West Plains Civic Center, 110 St. Louis St., in the north exhibit hall.
Blood supplies are critically low, and type O-negative blood donors are especially needed, say organization officials.
The public can schedule an appointment now by using the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org or calling 800-RED-CROSS (800-733-2767).
All successful donors will be eligible to receive a Grinch T-shirt, as long as supplies last. Plus, to celebrate the upcoming Prime Video release, “Candy Cane Lane,” those who sign up give blood in December will be automatically entered to win a holiday prize package, including a $1,000 Amazon gift card and 65-inch Omni QLED Series Amazon Fire TV. There will be 12 winners. Terms for both offers apply. See rcblood.org/Amazon for details. “Candy Cane Lane” features an all-star cast, including Eddie Murphy and Tracee Ellis Ross, and is directed by Reginald Hudlin.
