As schedules fill up with travel and holiday celebrations with friends and family, the American Red Cross is urging people to set aside some time to make a lifesaving blood or platelet donation.
Thanks to Prime Video and their new film “Candy Cane Lane,” those who come to give by Dec. 31 will automatically be entered for a chance to win a $1,000 Amazon.com Gift Card and a 65-inch Omni QLED Series Amazon Fire TV. Details available at RedCrossBlood.org/Amazon.
In thanks for giving, Red Cross is also offering a $10 Amazon.com gift card by email for those who give by Dec. 17, and a long-sleeved Red Cross T-shirt to those who give from Dec. 18 through Jan. 5, while supplies last.
