Blood Donors Needed

The Red Cross is in need of blood donors to help with shortages during the holiday season. Before I moved to Boston, I used to give blood regularly.  It started with a volunteering stint my freshman year of high school.  I used to man the "canteen" station during the drives, making sure there was an abundant supply of cookies and enough juice for donors to replenish fluids.  I was also responsible for looking out for signs of people fainting.  Without fail, there would always be 1 or 2 fainters each drive and they always ended up being the big, macho, football jocks.
