HI, I'M TIM MCGRAW. EVERY TWO SECONDS, SOMEONE IN AMERICA NEEDS BLOOD: ACCIDENT VICTIMS, CANCER PATIENTS, AND INDIVIDUALS WITH BLOOD DISORDERS AND OTHER ILLNESSES. THEY MAY LIVE NEXT DOOR, OR UP THE BLOCK, OR ACROSS TOWN--THEY'RE OUR NEIGHBORS. YET, ONLY A SMALL PERCENTAGE OF THOSE WHO ARE ELIGIBLE TO GIVE, DONATE BLOOD. A HEALTHY BLOOD SUPPLY COMES FROM ORDINARY PEOPLE--JUST LIKE YOU AND ME. IT'S ALL ABOUT NEIGHBORS HELPING NEIGHBORS. YOUR GIFT OF BLOOD IS NEEDED NOW, TO HELP SAVE LIVES. THAT'S WHY I'M JOINING WITH MY GOOD NEIGHBORS AT STATE FARM AND THE AMERICAN RED CROSS, IN THE "NEIGHBORS GIVE LIFE" CAMPAIGN, TO RAISE AWARENESS--AND TO CHALLENGE YOU TO DONATE BLOOD. IT ONLY TAKES AN HOUR OF YOUR TIME--AND IT CAN SAVE THE LIVES OF UP TO THREE PEOPLE. YOU CAN DONATE AS MANY AS SIX TIMES A YEAR. SO, MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO DONATE AT YOUR LOCAL BLOOD CENTER--AND DONATE OFTEN. AND, WON'T YOU JOIN ME NOW IN GIVING THE GIFT OF LIFE? BE A HOMETOWN HERO. VISIT "NEIGHBORS-GIVE-LIFE"-DOT-COM FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT DONATING BLOOD.
