DAYTON — The need for blood is urgent and constant. Every two seconds, someone in the United States needs blood. However, this past summer the American Red Cross has reported the lowest number of blood donations in 20 years—about 62% of the U.S. population is eligible to give blood but only about 3% donates.
7 Circle of Kindness believes that by coming together, we in the Miami Valley have the power to help.
