Local 411- Red Cross Needs Your Help [VIDEO]

The mission of the Red Cross is to help the public prevent, prepare for and respond to emergencies. During National Preparedness Month, the Red Cross is asking us to take some simple steps to get ready for emergencies.

So to encourage donors to stop in for the month of September, those people who stop in to donate blood or platelets throughout the month will receive a coupon by email for a FREE haircut at participating Sport Clips locations...Just in time for the new school year!

You can schedule your appointment to donate online, at redcrossblood.org. Information about other ways you can help prepare for emergencies is also available to you, by visiting the website redcross.org.
