Midmark &
Versailles High School NHS to sponsor blood drive
DAYTON, Ohio – Donors will get a chance to win a deluxe Hawaii vacation
for two at the Midmark and Versailles High School National Honor
Society sponsored community blood drive Monday, July 20 from 12:30 p.m.
to 7 p.m. in the Versailles Knights of Columbus Social Hall, 8440 State
Route 47. Everyone who registers to donate will receive a free
“Donor Surf Co.” surfboard t-shirt and everyone age 18 and older will
also be entered in the Community Blood Center (CBC) “Get on Board –
Give Blood” summer blood drive drawing to win an expense-paid Hawaii
vacation for two. Donors are encouraged to schedule an
appointment online at www.DonorTime.com or call 1-800-388-GIVE.
The grand prize includes air travel and deluxe accommodations for eight
nights at two island locations. All taxes, fees and meals are
included. The vacation package also includes pre-paid activities
and sight-seeing excursions, plus all ground transportation.
Everyone age 18 and older who registers to donate with CBC from May 4
through Aug. 28 will be automatically entered in the “Get on Board –
Give Blood Summer Blood Drive” drawing. REACH magazine is the
media sponsor and The Flowerman is the fresh flower sponsor. Eligible
donors can enter the drawing a second time when they register for a
second donation during the blood drive period. Official rules are
available at www.givingblood.org.
Anyone who registers to donate Monday, June 15 through Saturday, July
25 at any CBC Donor Center and most CBC mobile blood drives will
receive CBC’s second special-edition, Hawaiian surf board design
t-shirt of the summer. The “Donor Surf Co.” t-shirt is bright
blue with a colorful surfboard and island floral design, plus the CBC
blood drop and the slogan “Drop In, Lei Back, & Donate.”
Maintaining the blood supply can be challenging during the summer
months due to vacation travel and other changes in schedules. 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.
