Submit Your Own Story

Every day thousands of peoples' lives are affected by blood donation—either as a donor, recipient or friend or family member of a recipient. At the Red Cross, we love to share those stories. They are stories of generosity, hope and survival—stories about the power of a blood donation.

If you have a story to share, we would love to hear it. Please submit your story using the form below or send it to:

American Red Cross
Attn: Marketing and Communications
100 Robert St. South
St. Paul, MN 55107

We also love to receive hand-drawn pictures and photographs!
