Red Cross Under Emergency Appeal

St. Francois County, Mo. (KFMO) ​- Health officials with the Red Cross are asking for your help with an emergency appeal because donated blood levels are extremely low.

Regional Business Development Manager, with the American Red Cross, Mindy Hendrix, says that can cause doctors to make serious choices concerning surgeries.

According to Hendrix, there are several blood drives in the Parkland, including the Farmington Elks Lodge this Wednesday and the Desloge First Baptist Church on Monday, August 19, 2024.

You can find more blood drives and sign up for them at redcrossblood.org.
