Viral Red Cross Peanuts® t-shirts are back, just in time to celebrate 75 years of Snoopy, smiles, and savings lives. The American Red Cross is partnering with the beloved PEANUTS brand. Anyone who comes to donate [by Sunday, September 21, 2025,] will receive one-of-four special designs, while they last.
Get your Snoopy swag on Thursday, September 11, at St. Mary Catholic Church, 13320 Garden Plain Road, Morrison, IL. The American Red Cross will host a blood drive, from noon to 6:00 p.m.
Please join our lifesaving mission and schedule an appointment today. Pre-register now at www.redcross.org. On Thursday morning, September 11, revisit the link and click on “Are You Eligible Today?” If so, use Rapid Pass at www.redcross.org/rapidpass to answer required questions. You can save time once you arrive at the Church.
Call ARC at 800-733-2767.
Pre-hydrate your body. Be sure to drink 16 ounces of extra water before you attend. This avoids becoming dehydrated after removal of a blood product.
Nationwide, someone needs a unit of blood every 2-to-3 seconds.
• “One-thousand-one; one-thousand-two; one-thousand-three.”
• The need for blood is constant.
• Only donated human blood can save lives and fulfill that need for patients.
