As part of the Blood Emergency Readiness Corps (BERC), South Texas Blood & Tissue was one of 10 blood centers on call this week to help out in need of an emergency.
It’s the fifth time since BERC Network was formed in 2021 that participating blood centers have been called upon to provide blood. Thirty-six community blood centers currently participate.
“We are seeing the tremendous power of communities coming together in a time of need,” said Amanda Hess, Vice President, Donor Relations and Marketing with ImpactLife. “Having consistently strong donor and blood drive support in advance of a crisis is critical. Routine donations made by volunteer donors allow us to assist with disaster response while meeting ongoing needs of the communities we serve.”SouthTexasBlood.
