An American Red Cross blood drive is planned on March 27 at Donnelly College, 608 N. 18th St., Kansas City, Kansas.
The blood drive will take place from 1 to 5 p.m.
According to a spokesman for the Red Cross, donors of all blood types are needed to help ensure a sufficient supply for patients this spring. Cancer patients, for example, often are in need of red blood cells and platelets.
Those interested in donating may make an appointment by visiting RedCrossBlood.org, accessing the Red Cross blood donor app at www.redcrossblood.org/bloodapp or calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).
