Australia Bushfire Crisis, A Time Of Tragedy For Man and Animals – #AustraliaBurning #AustraliaOnFire #AustralianBushfires
Australia is facing the natural disaster of bushfires that are engulfing much of the country. This is one of the worst natural disasters in the history of the nation. People have lost their property and so much more. These fires have done much ecological damage to the nation including a severe impact on the animal population. Thoughts and prayers are cliches but the people of Oz could use as much as they can get. Also, you can provide practical support through donating to the Australian Red Cross if you can.
Winter Weather Creates Blood Shortages in the East | Time
The American Red Cross is making an urgent call for blood and platelet donations of all blood types to help combat a blood shortage, after severe winter weather caused January blood bank donations to drop by the thousands. via Winter Weather Creates Blood Shortages in the East | Time
This is true for the blood bank I work for. We are facing shortages in O- and O+ blood types. In my department at work we are charged with getting donors to come into a facility or a mobile collection unit. With illness and resetting of personal routines after the holidays its tough to get people in. This is a time of year you have to do a little more to help save lives.
