## Caption

We really need you. Severe winter weather has forced over 500 Red Cross blood drives to close, impacting our ability to collect about 20,000 lifesaving blood and platelet donations amid a severe blood shortage. 😞

Help us replenish the blood supply and ensure lifesaving medical procedures are not delayed. Make an appointment through the link in our bio.
