Blood donations are needed. I am begging Stanford to supply a housing life line to our most vulnerable suffering a grave health crisis — a metaphoric blood supply desert . When safe, quality shelter is denied, our human inhabitants fall away from the giving shaft. Get it together Stanford. Blood for the needy elsewhere, yes. Yet housing here for our deprived is necessary forward. It’s indeed a healthcare crisis. Give locally so we can give globally. I’ll look forward to your generous property donations, so I can then give my bodies blood to serve world wide. TY!

If you are eligible and have some time, PLEASE donate! You will be helping people and also get that warm fuzzy feeling knowing you have done something good. AND...you can win prizes! :-)

I read this story and donated. My easy excuse of “I lived in England and can’t donate per CDC guidelines” went away earlier this year. It took about an hour and was much easier than a trip to the dentist.
