The Blood Drive at Tecumseh High School is just getting underway.
The American Red Cross is celebrating the fact that March is Red Cross Month by renewing calls for needed blood, platelet and plasma donations.
A year ago, many things in the world paused due to the COVID-19 pandemic. But the need for blood never stopped. Today, students and staff are doing their part to help out.
Blood donations are essential and the American Red Cross is urging individuals who are healthy to make an appointment to donate blood.
