Kenmure Country Club-- In the Charleston Room

—With the free Red Cross Blood Donor App, donors can
conveniently schedule an appointment to donate blood to help save lives. They can also access
their donor card, track the impact of their donations and earn rewards through the app.

 

Donors of all blood types are encouraged to donate blood. Whether blood is needed for a
chronic condition, such as sickle cell disease, a surgical procedure or a large-scale emergency,
it’s the blood already on the shelves that helps save lives.

To make an appointment or to learn more, download the American Red Cross Blood Donor
App, visit RedCrossBlood.org, call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or enable the Blood
Donor Skill on any Alexa Echo device. Completion of a RapidPass® online health history
questionnaire is encouraged to help speed up the donation process. To get started, follow the
instructions at RedCrossBlood.org/RapidPass or use the Blood Donor App.

A blood donor card or driver’s license or two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Individuals who
are 17 years of age in most states (16 with parental consent where allowed by state law), weigh
at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. High
school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height
and weight requirements.
