To sign up for the blood drive, click the following link: www.RedCrossBlood.org
This will open a new window. You can switch back and forth between the two windows to follow the directions which follow.
Instructions:
1. Click Find a Blood Drive Near You on the left.
2. Enter the zip code 08550 or the sponsor code 854 and click Find. You should see the next date for a Beth Chaim blood donation.
3. Click on Click here to schedule an appointment to donate on the right.
4. Enter your email address and birth date (the sponsor code should already be filled in) and click Login.
If you have donated before, and you log in with the same email and birth date, you will skip step 5.
5. Enter your name and address as requested. Also your blood type if known.
6. Click on the Date (There should be only one date listed), and the available times appear.
7. Click on a line in the Appointments Available column to select a time. (Not all times may be available.)
8. Review the confirmation screen. Answer the Members for Life question. Enter any comments needed.
9. If the above is all correct, then click Confirm Appointment at the bottom right to confirm this appointment.
You should receive a confirmation email very shortly and a reminder a few days before your scheduled donation.
Within the confirmation email is an Add to my calendar link. At least for Microsoft Outlook Calendar users (and possibly others), this will add your donation appointment to your calendar. Click it and you will open a web page with your appointment details. Click the Add to my Outlook Calendar link below and a File Download dialog box will appear. Click the Open button, make any adjustments you desire, and then click Save and Close to save this appointment. (If you use other calendars, the process may be slightly different.)
