DFW has been through an unpredictable week and we have faced obstacles most of us never imagined. We hope to provide you with the resources you need to get back on your feet. There are several volunteer opportunities available in our community too!
If you are able to get our safely today, platelet and blood donations are critically low. Contact your local Carter Bloodcare Center to make sure they are open.
Cook Children’s & other area hospitals are in CRITICAL need of platelets for our patients. Several @CarterBloodCare locations are open & accepting donations. If you can safely make it to a donation center, we ask that you please consider doing so: https://t.co/TjCAptdQSR pic.twitter.com/OL2xlBHBpJ
