There is no doubt that blood donation is a noble cause as that’s what is reflected in the latest call of the American Red Cross too. It has been claimed that the Red Cross and Kearney Yamaha would come forward this time together to ensure that as much as possible amount of blood is being collected at the Kearney Yamaha showroom at 511 S. Second Ave. Among all, O negative blood is reported to be in high demand.

It was further claimed that there would be special focus on collecting O negative, O positive, A negative and B negative blood types. It was further told that a machine specifically for donors would be there which would be able to separate red blood cells from other parts of the blood so that only red blood cells are being extracted.

“We do that separation while the donor is giving blood. They have given two units instead of one”, said April Oppliger, spokeswoman for the Red Cross. O negative blood being the universal blood type is always in demand and that’s why it’s being given so much of the attention.

There is need for more and more people to come forward to be a part of the noble event which could change one’s life forever.
