WICHITA FALLS ( KFDX/KJTL ) — This October, donate blood to save a life and be entered to win some Amazon gift cards.

The American Red Cross blood drive will be on Friday, Oct. 11 , at the Donor Center in Wichita Falls. This is such a great cause that helps out the community and those receiving donations from donors.

Donations by anyone 17 years old and older with relatively good health can sign up and donate.

It is such an easy process that it only takes about 10 minutes once you’ve donated. According to Kara Nickens, one unit of blood donated saves one life.

For those who donate during October, you can receive a free $10 Amazon gift card via email and will automatically be entered to win a $500 gift card.

The American Red Cross is also aiding victims of Hurricane Helene and the upcoming Hurricane Hilton.

They need volunteers to be deployed to help victims. If you can help, visit their website or the Donar Center in Wichita Falls for more information.

The American Red Cross is solely volunteer-based and couldn’t do it without their volunteers.

Thanks for signing up!
