The U.S. is facing the lowest number of people giving blood in 20 years.
When fewer people donate blood, even small disruptions to blood donations can have a huge effect on the availability of blood products and dramatic consequences for those in need of emergency blood transfusions.
Donors who present to donate between April 8-28 will receive a $10 e-gift card to a merchant of their choice.
