Blood donors: having difficulty with the TSO promotion!

2 Upvotes

I'm trying to redeem for their ticket reward on the Red Cross app but I can't find DC anywhere on the list.

Is it just that their options sold out already or is it being rolled out in waves? Has anyone else managed to acquire one for DC? Was DC *never* an option? I'm so confused and would really like to take advantage of this promotion!

My mum is missing after floods in Tibet

14 Upvotes

My mum Evita Sarma (Latvian citizen) has been missing from Gyron port (Tibet side), since the floods on the 26th of August.

At this point i am running out of options, so I'm reaching out to you dear Reddit users.

Based on the last photo that my mum sent me, she just cleared the Border about 3 min before floods hit. I have contacted the Latvian ministry of foreign affairs, Chinese embassy in Latvia and support phone line that was set up for international queries.

I do understand that chances are astronomically low, but until I'll get concrete information I will be still keeping hope and praying for the miracle.

My biggest problem is that last information about what's going on (in terms of rescue work) was on the 7th of September.

If you know anything current like hospitals rescued people have been transported to, agencies to contact, statistics or anything else, I would be endlessly thankful.

I really need your help. My mum is the dearest person to my ever and only family i have. We always been close and I miss her so, so much.

Disaster Services Winter Coat

4 Upvotes

I bought a fantastic winter coat on eBay that I really liked, but it was a large and I just swam in it. I’m looking for a similar one in either medium or small. It was red, had reflective stripes, huge pockets, and Disaster Services on the logo. Anybody know of one?

Account?

3 Upvotes

Hey so i am volunteering with my school club and they said we had to create volunteer connection accounts my question is how long does the whole process take and is it safe?. The club I am part of wants to use the account numbers when we signup for stuff so i am curious if those numbers are given right after the account is made (8 digit numbers).

Anyone know what the deal is here?

Any hello kitty plush available for a donor?

1 Upvotes

I signed up to donate blood for today, the 22nd, as it was the only available date in my area, but it was after the hello kitty date. I was hoping to get some leftover hello kitty plushies to wear as a badge of honor and help promote blood donation.

I am a new time donor since high school and happily donated and will continue to donor.

I was wondering if anyone had any hello kitty plushies they can kindly send me? I can pay for shipping and a little extra for your troubles.

Thank you for your consideration!

Me checking the ARC app every few days to see if the donation has been used despite knowing they send a notification when it is.

Looking to get my Instructor cert, the prereq asks for current American Red Cross First Aid/CPR/AED or equivalent. I am wondering if my NOLS WFA counts as an equivalent?

I’ve given 4 gallons with the Red Cross but the Big Red Bus was at my work then at my Walmart.

If the Red Cross could just be more convenient, I would show up!

Red Cross blood collections

I’m interviewing for blood collections staff and looking for feedback. I don’t have phlebotomy experience but I think it would be good for me to try before I spend money on a certification.
