Medical City Healthcare facilities in Dallas-Fort Worth will host nearly 30 blood drives May through July to help address seasonal shortages and prepare for the FIFA World Cup, according to an April 28 news release.

The details: In partnership with the American Red Cross North Texas Region and Carter BloodCare, Medical City Healthcare will hold drives at hospitals across the region.

Summer months typically bring a decline in blood donations due to vacations and school closures while trauma cases often increase around holidays and large events, according to the release. Officials said demand may rise further this year as North Texas prepares to host the World Cup from June 11-July 19.

“That support is especially critical this summer as we anticipate an influx of visitors and soccer fans and know blood supplies are often strained during the summer months,” said Linda Braddy, CEO of the American Red Cross North Texas Region.

A hospital in Denton is getting major renovations and a retail space in Plano will be converted into a Goodwill Store and Donation Center, according to state construction permits.
