It's International Lifeguard Appreciation Day. Lifeguards help to prevent, protect and respond to aquatic emergencies. Like Amber, a Red Cross-trained lifeguard who helped save an infant who fell into a lap pool. Let's salute lifeguards who work to keep us safe in the water!

Think you can’t donate blood? You might be surprised. Old rules and myths stop many people from donating – but guidelines have changed. Lives are saved everyday thanks to blood donors. It’s worth checking if you’re eligible.❤️

Extreme heat can be dangerous, especially for those most at risk. Some people are more vulnerable to heat-related illness because their bodies have a harder time staying cool. • Older adults’ bodies don’t cool as quickly. • Babies and young children can overheat and dehydrate
