Red Cross Calls For Blood Donations Amid National Shortage

(Minot, ND) — The American Red Cross is calling for blood donations amid an ongoing national blood supply shortage. Since early last month, the Red Cross has seen a shortfall of more than 19-thousand donations across the country. The drop has been mostly due to severe weather in various parts of the country, including here in North Dakota. Storms often force the Red Cross to shutter blood drives, sometimes before they even happen, leaving potential donors out in the cold.
