Red Cross Sending Some Blood to Orlando

There are several ways to help after the massacre at Pulse nightclub in Orlando.

The American Red Cross doesn’t typically serve hospitals in the Orlando, Florida area, but the Red Cross in Farmington is providing a small number of blood products to support Florida hospitals.

They said they have what they need to respond to the tragic incident, but stand ready to provide additional blood and blood products as needed.

Eligible individuals can make an appointment to give blood in the coming weeks and months by using the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting www.redcrossblood.org, or calling 1-800-RED CROSS.

Here are more ways to help.
