What motivated you to give blood for the first time?

Aaron takes his health seriously and made his first donation out of “curiosity.”

"It's kind of like a way to get a health check just to say, ‘oh, you know, my hemoglobin is good or iron levels are fine,’" he shared while donating at a Delco blood drive over the summer.

He's given blood at least 10 times since his first donation.

"I've been donating for quite some time, and I feel good doing it," he said. "It just makes me feel like a better person, contributing to helping others."

Aaron uses the time he's on the donation table to relax and says it's almost like meditating. He also describes the donation experience as pain free!

Every 2 seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood, and donors are needed 365 days a year. Schedule an appointment to help ensure blood is available wherever and whenever it's needed.

When communities are devastated by disaster, local Red Cross volunteer Bill Gausch doesn't hesitate to go where he's needed most. In fact, he's currently on his third deployment across the pacific to Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands this year!

From supporting families impacted by local home fires to deploying at least 15 times across the country after major disasters, Bill has dedicated his retirement to helping people rebuild and recover wherever and whenever there is a need.

Bill's volunteer journey over the past 3 years is a reminder that compassion has no boundaries, and that one person can make a world of difference.

According to a recent survey, only 20% of Philadelphians say they verify chargers are properly certified before buying them. While cheap chargers may seem like a good deal, they can damage your battery, device and outlet and increase the risk of fire!

Make safety a priority by always using the cord and charger that come with your device or ones approved by your device's manufacturer.
