According to Carter BloodCare, the blood supply has dropped to critical levels because of the recent severe winter weather. They are encouraging residents to donate in March to help Texas patients. When time is so important, needed medical procedures are being delayed until blood becomes available. Donating blood helps save the lives of neighbors in need.
There are patients who need transfusions because of accidents, organ transplants and open-heart surgeries, cancer treatments, difficulties during childbirth, anemia and age-related health issues.
The need for blood is nonstop. However, you can help fellow Texans by giving at one of the Carter BloodCare community blood drives below. There are multiple opportunities throughout Garland.
