How to help Hurricane Harvey flooding victims

Money is useful but there are other necessary supplies that can’t be bought.

A news release from BioBridge Global said blood supplies in South Texas hospitals are being strained by a surge of patients. The release states that the type O negative blood supply is at “critically low levels” and all blood types are encouraged to donate.

Fort Worth has several blood donation centers located on the map below.
