American Red Cross Seeks Diverse Blood Supply

The American Red Cross is urging people of all races and ethnicities to donate blood to help ensure a diverse blood supply for patients in need.

According to the American Red Cross, some blood types are specific to certain racial and ethnic groups. Blood from someone with a similar racial or ethnic background can help to decrease the chances of complications.
