Join Vitalant with NEWS11, ABC5 and Telemundo 3 to build Yuma’s blood supply during the lowest week of the year for donations.  Yuma Holiday Heroes blood donors will help save Arizona kids like 7-year-old Braden, who was diagnosed last year with leukemia.  During his 138-day stay in the hospital, he underwent chemotherapy, required more than 30 blood transfusions and was declared cancer free one year ago on Thanksgiving Day.  Braden and his family are so thankful for all the heroes who donated blood and played a vital part in helping him to beat leukemia.
