As part of Red Cross Month, the American Red Cross is asking the Roswell community to become an everyday hero and donate blood.

“Red Cross Month is an ideal time for people to show support for our mission,” said Mario Sedlock, interim CEO of the Southern Blood Services Region. “Anyone can become an Everyday Hero by giving blood or platelets, becoming a volunteer, making a financial donation or taking a class.”
