Spent part of my morning donating at @UTMDAnderson Blood Bank. Cancer patients depend on a steady blood supply every day of the year, not only on the days it makes for a good photo. If you are eligible, please consider giving: bit.ly/4oES5rS. It only takes 30 minutes and it can save a life. #EndCancer
