Host a Blood Drive

Support your community by hosting a blood drive at your apartment community. The Red Cross will walk you through each and every step and will provide you with instructions to make it easy for you and your staff. They offer fliers on their website to promote your blood drive to your residents and surrounding businesses. Make sure to list tips on the flier such as Bring an ID. Bring a list of Medications you are taking. Maintain a healthy level of Iron before donating. Wear something comfortable. Hydrate. Bring a Friend. and Relax. When planning your blood drive make sure to secure the date and time. Select a goal and publicize the drive. Distribute Red Cross Materials. Ask for volunteers and give specific roles to each such as posting directional arrows and posters. In the end remember to post results of the drive and thank your donors and have a great time with all involved.
