 Many generous Americans nationwide donate blood
to ensure a sustained and secure blood supply for all Americans.
Together with the Red Cross, these blood heroes are ensuring that
the safest possible blood is readily available whenever and wherever
needed - for the military, for other blood centers in America
and for all 5,000 of America's hospitals.
We all expect blood to be there for us, but barely
a fraction of those who can give do. Yet sooner or later, virtually
all of us will face a time of great vulnerability in which we
will need blood. And that time is all too often unexpected. From
its beginning, the American Red Cross has formed a community of
service, of generous, strong and decent people bound by beliefs
beyond themselves. The honor, spirit and resources of the American
people comes forth with neighbors helping neighbors in need -
during earthquakes, floods, fires, storms - and also for the deeply
personal and often quiet disasters that require a gift of blood.
