The Philippine Red Cross (PRC) calls for blood donors as the holiday season approaches to help fill the blood reserves.

As people prefers to stay home fearing coronavirus infection, PRC assured that all health protocols are being observed to keep donors safe.

PRC is also expecting a surge in demand for blood supply and reserves during the holiday season.

PRC chairman and CEO, Senator Richard Gordon urged the public to donate more blood to replenish the reserves in case of emergencies.

“Ang pangangailangan sa dugo ay hindi tumitigil. (The need for blood doesn’t stop),” Gordon said in a news release on Tuesday.

The Red Cross called on the people to keep in touch with PRC’s 103 chapters and 98 blood centers or call 143 for urgent blood concerns.

“We know that blood will be a top concern in this season. PRC will be open to help,” Gordon said. “We all know that this season is the leanest month and our donation drives will surely slow down.”

He said donating blood “will be a great help in our efforts to provide aid to the most vulnerable.”
