Blood Drive Monday in Honor of Bartlett Victims
10/26/2012

(KAIR) -- One year to the date, the Atchison Area American Red Cross will host their second annual blood drive Monday to honor the victims of the Bartlett Grain elevator explosion.

The idea originated when the need for blood and blood products became a reality for some families.

Director Kim Bottorff says there was an overwhelming support for the inaugural drive last year.

Bottorff says all types of blood are needed.
