In 2012 alone, nearly 6 million people across American may
require a blood transfusion. With no substitute for human blood, those in need
rely on the kindness of donors. Through their generous actions, these blood
donors prove how one person can make a difference in the lives of many, as one
blood donation can help save more than one life.
To raise awareness about this critical issue, the American
Red Cross Blood Services is partnering with Nexcare TM Bandages on the Give campaign. This nationwide
initiative thanks blood donors and encourages other to give. The campaign kicks
off June 14th –World Blood Donor Day, and runs through the end of
the month at Red Cross blood drives and donor centers across the county.
New for 2012, Nexcare Brand will be giving away limited
edition bandages inspired by iconic trends from decades past, adorned with the
word “give” to demonstrate that “Giving Blood is Timeless.” This collection
features six eye-catching designs ranging from retro polka dots and tie-dye to
grunge plaid and is a nostalgic nod to the time-honored tradition of giving
back by donating blood.
To pledge your support for blood donation, request free Nexcare

The Red Cross must collect 20,000 units of blood each
weekday and another 12000 each weekend in order to help save lives of patients,
