Red Cross Blood Drive in Brighton

Blood Bus at Re/Max Platinum Real Estate in Brighton (formerly The Michigan Group) 10 am - 3:45 pm

A last-minute cancellation has brought the Red Cross Blood Bus to Brighton. We need at least 20 more appointments to make our goal. Please call J. Michael Lenninger at (517) 285-7350 to make an appointment or log on to www.RedCrossBlood.org and use the sponsor code: ReMaxBrighton or call 1-800-RED CROSS.

If you haven't donated whole blood since Aug. 14, you may be eligible. Call 1-866-236-3276 if you are uncertain. Donors must be at least age 16 with written parental permission, weigh at least 110 pounds and be in general good health.

There is still an urgent need for all blood types this month. Please give - so that others may live! The need for blood is constant. There is no substitute. Consider donating blood 4x a year - every 3 months - or quarterly, when the seasons change!
