The hustle and bustle of the holiday season can lead to blood supply shortages as fewer people take the time out to donate blood. You have the opportunity to make a huge difference in the life of a patient in need by participating in the blood drive at the U-M Hospital’s Towsley Lobby on Tuesday, December 18th from 6:30 am to 6:30 pm.

Walk-ins are welcome as space permits. However, making an appointment and using Rapid Pass will save you time. There are four easy ways to make an appointment:

To use Rapid Pass:

  • Visit org/RapidPass
  • Read the information
  • Answer the questions
  • Print the pass and bring it to the drive

Those who donate will receive a FREE American Red Cross T-shirt while supplies last.
