Sickle Cell Blood Drive

press release: Many sickle cell patients depend on regular blood transfusions from African American blood donors to treat the effects of the disease. But, the number of African Americans donating blood with the American Red Cross has dropped by more than half. Donations are needed now to help ensure treatments continue uninterrupted. 

As part of this drive, the Red Cross is offering all who donate at the Urban League on April 30 FREE Health Screening.

The Urban League of Greater Madison Guild and Young Professionals are proud to partner with the Red Cross to host this drive.
