Project YESS

I hope you are all staying safe and healthy!! If you are healthy & well, please considering giving blood. Your help is needed to overcome shortages for patients. Cleveland Rotarian Michael N. Parks, Rear Admiral USCG (ret.) is the CEO of the American Red Cross – Northern Ohio Region and needs our help as we are now facing a severe blood shortage. Here in the Northern Ohio Region, more than 300 blood drives have been canceled, resulting in approximately 8,500 fewer blood donations.

The American Red Cross continues to face a severe blood shortage due to an unprecedented number of blood drive cancellations in response to the coronavirus outbreak. To help meet the need, the AmericanRedcross and Cleveland Clinic have partnered with us to host a blood drive at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse this Friday, March 27 from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

Individuals can schedule an appointment to give blood with the Red Cross by visiting RedCrossBlood.org, using the Red Cross Blood Donor App and entering code “Rocket” calling 1-800-RED-CROSS or enabling the Blood Donor Skill on any Alexa Echo device. Donors MUST make an appointment before showing up to donate in order to manage the flow of donors appropriately in alignment with social distancing practices.
