Even the day after Christmas, you have one more gift to give. The American Red Cross will host a blood drive at the Franklin library, part of the organization’s Read and Bleed program. Dig into a good book while you roll up your sleeve, lie back and donate life-saving blood this holiday season.
The blood drive is open to everyone age 17 and up. All types of blood are needed. To make an appointment, please call 800-733-2767 or visit www.redcrossblood.org.
