Throughout 2015, the American Red Cross is commemorating a century of helping make Chicago safer and more prepared in the face of emergencies. To help kick-off the year-long celebration, the Red Cross is partnering with ABC 7 Eyewitness News, Fresenius Kabi, Univision and iHeartMedia Chicago to host the 100th Anniversary Blood Drive on Jan. 21 from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. at Union Station.
This special event comes at an important time of year since lifesaving blood donations tend to decline during the winter months when donors may be unable to give because of inclement weather and seasonal illnesses.
As a special thank you for making time to give on Jan. 21, those who come to donate will receive a Red Cross 100th Anniversary T-shirt and gift bag, while supplies last.
Donate blood at the Red Cross 100th Anniversary Blood Drive and help ensure hospital patients have the blood products they need this winter.
