In Red Cross (Australia) Blood Donation PSA, Filmmakers Put Their Arms Where Their Message Is

April 11th, 2010 · No Comments

Thanks to Keith Robertory I just saw a fun and I think effective new blood donation PSA from the Australian Red Cross that I wanted to post. And, as someone who has benefited greatly from donated blood, I’m always looking for a reason to promote the subject on the blog.

Red Cross (Australia) Blood Donation PSA

Those of you inspired by the film crew to donate blood (but don’t live in Australia) can check the American Red Cross website which has information about giving. It also has a site, www.givelife.org, and a toll-free number, 1-800-448-3543, to find blood drives in your area.

The American Association of Blood Banks also has a website which allows you to search by zip codes for places (like hospitals) where you can donate blood and platelets. It is a relatively easy way that all of us can contribute to our society’s preparedness for emergencies.
