The American Red Cross helps coordinate a significant portion of the United States' blood donation annually and is a chief advocate for overall health.
"We salute all of our volunteers and employees who make a difference in their communities by donating blood or platelets; volunteering to help people affected by a disaster; taking a first aid or CPR class to help in an emergency; or providing comfort to a member of the military, a veteran or their family," the American Red Cross said in a public statement. The Red Cross has a variety of donation requirements based on the donation plan chosen by an individual.
The American Red Cross is responsible for approximately 40% of all voluntary blood donations and components every year.
