Our four chapters cover from Richland County, OH to Northern Kentucky and from Southeast Indiana over to Athens County, OH. Our region boasts eight blood donation centers and a one of the top five Red Cross blood labs in the country based on the volume of product moved through our facility. We are led by volunteers and financially supported by generous residents, corporations and foundations.
