‘We Can Save a
Life’ Blood Drives for March
DAYTON & DARKE COUNTY, Ohio – Darke County area businesses,
organizations, and schools, will host several blood drives in
March. Everyone who registers to donate will receive the St.
Patrick’s Day “With a Little Love and a Bit of Luck We Can Save a Life
– Donate Blood” t-shirt. Donors are encouraged to schedule an
appointment online at www.DonorTime.com.
Who doesn’t love St. Patrick’s Day and the annual opportunity to be
just a wee bit Irish? The St. Patrick’s Day t-shirt is free when you
register to donate Monday, March 2 through Saturday, March 28 at any
CBC Donor Center and most CBC mobile blood drives.
The St. Patrick’s Day t-shirt is grey with the message “With a Little
Love and a Bit of Luck We Can Save a Live – Donate Blood” in green
lettering. The design features a four-leaf clover with three
heart-shaped leaves in green and one in white with the CBC blood drop
logo.
The rare quad-clover is considered the luckiest of lucky charms.
According to Irish tradition, the three-leaves symbolize the Holy
Trinity. When a Shamrock is found with a fourth leaf, it
represents God’s grace. The shirt will be charming to wear as we
welcome spring, and especially on St. Paddy’s Day, March 17.
Maintaining the blood supply can be challenging during late winter and
early spring due to inclement weather and illness. If you have to
miss an appointment, CBC encourages you to reschedule when you are
able. We especially encourage the continued support of type O
whole blood donors and type A/B platelet and plasma donors.
