A lot has changed over the years, but one thing has remained consistent - the generous spirit of American Red Cross volunteer blood donors.
The Red Cross began supporting the blood needs of our country following World War II. Back then, blood was drawn into glass bottles. While this and many other things have changed about the way we collect blood today, one thing has not changed, and that is the willingness of volunteer blood donors to roll up their sleeves and help others.
Each year, more than 3 million volunteer blood donors, like you, help achieve our lifesaving mission. Without your help, patients undergoing surgery, an organ transplant procedure or treatment for cancer would not receive the care they need.
During January, National Volunteer Blood Donor Month, we honor you and all generous individuals who are willing to give from the heart.
Did you know?
Blood is often in short supply this time of year. W inter weather, as well as the holidays, can impact collections to the point of putting patients at risk.
Resolve to give something that means something. Schedule your blood donation appointment today.

CASS COUNTY CASA VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
We are currently recruiting CASA Volunteers for the upcoming training session scheduled in April 2014. We only train two classes a year, call and reserve your spot today?
What does a Court Appointed Special Advocate volunteer do? Each CASA volunteer is screened, trained and completes 30 hours of pre-service training. Once trained, CASA volunteers are assigned under the Juvenile Court jurisdiction to speak on behalf of a child to ensure the needs and interests of abused and neglected children are being met.
Who are CASA volunteers? Our active volunteers are individuals from our community who work part-time, full-time or are retired. Volunteers commit to one year with a child, but seldom leave a case until it has been terminated.
If I can't be a CASA volunteer, how can I help? In addition to training new CASA volunteers, we are also in need of administrative services support such as : filing, data entry and making copies.
Your help directly benefits the Cass County CASA Program. A donor-supported volunteer organization whose mission is to offer court-appointed volunteer advocacy to children that are abused, neglected and often find themselves lost in the court system. Through Cass County CASA, these children are placed with advocates that speak on their behalf and know them well enough to make informed recommendations to the judge.
Please call Angie Neumiller, Executive Director at 402-296-9620 or email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and become a CASA volunteer today.
