Blood Donor Magistrate Leads Lifesaving Appeals
New York magistrate J Roland Sala routinely appeals in court for blood donors. A high school student with hemophilia needed blood and 22 volunteers provided a pint each, saving the boy’s life at the Brooklyn Red Cross. Sala, a former actor and boxer, has donated 63 pints and organized hundreds more, often delivering donors to banks himself.
