The American Red Cross is partnering with Nexcare bandages this month to observe World Blood Donor Day, which is Tuesday.

To honor those who give blood around the world, Nexcare has developed a limited-edition collection of bandages with the theme “Feel the Beat, Give Blood” featuring dance-inspired designs reflecting cultures around the world. The bandages are being used at Red Cross blood donation sites.
