Cartoonists Draw Blood - American Red Cross Blood Drive is Nov. 2 in DC


On Saturday, November 2, 2013, twelve of the finest cartoonists in the Washington, DC area will be devoting their time and talents to sketch for blood donors for the first-ever 'Cartoonists Draw Blood' event with the American Red Cross at Seekers Church (276 Carroll Street, NW in Washington, DC 20012 -- one block from Takoma Metro).

This is a great opportunity for cartoonists to perform community service, showcase our talents, and hopefully save lives. The Red Cross does not need blood – patients do. Every two seconds someone in America gets a blood transfusion. Five million patients will need blood this year.

Blood donors are needed to sign up for appointments scheduled in 15 minute intervals between 10AM to 3:30PM. To donate blood, please email Carolyn 'info@curls-studio.com' with your preferred appointment time. Walk-ins are welcome.

On the day of your blood donation, be sure to drink plenty of fluids, include iron-rich foods in your diet, bring a list of medications you are taking, and bring a photo ID.
