The gift of life is the best gift a person can give to one in need

There is no better way to describe the Red Cross blood drive than as a Christmas miracle. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, cold weather and a busy time of year, the Christmas spirit of giving was alive and well at Weiser’s quarterly blood drive on Dec. 9. In total, more than 100 people donated life-saving blood.

 As wonderful as it may sound, the day was not without problems. The large turnout was not anticipated by Red Cross employees, who were overwhelmed by the major influx.
