AMERICAN RED CROSS of Montclair-Glen Ridge-Nutley

About Me

The American Red Cross has a mission to fulfill the blood needs of the American people and provide the safest, most reliable and cost-effective blood and plasma services through voluntary donations. Our blood supply must be constantly replenished - lives depend upon it. Thousands of blood donors are needed in our region each week. Donors can give blood at any 2 of our monthly blood drives. For details, please call 1.800. GIVE LIFE or our Montclair office at 973.746-1800. Our lifesaving work is made possible by volunteers, volunteer blood donors, and caring people in the community who organize and sponsor blood drives. The American Red Cross is a national, not-for-profit organization.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Think about hosting a blood drive at your job,your school, or your church. It is easy with our support staff; all you have to do is get a handful of committed people that will donate an hour of their time to give love and give life.We are actively seeking organizations, businesses, or schools that would be interested in hosting a blood drive in either Montclair, Glen Ridge or Nutley in 2008.
