Red Cross giving out Amazon gift cards to blood donors
Amid a nationwide shortage, the American Red Cross is incentivizing the public to donate blood.
If you give blood any time throughout the month of February, Red Cross will send you a $20 Amazon gift card via email.
You can also schedule a platelet or AB Elite plasma donation to get the gift card as well.
Red Cross says it's facing a blood shortage right now because cold temperatures have recently canceled many blood drives.
