Fantastic. OK, this is the week. Go at lunch. After work. If you regularly donate but are not eligible to donate yet, get your next appointment scheduled. Get your roommates and spouses to join in.

It takes less than an hour in the door and out the door to donate whole blood. Many places have late hours once or twice a week. Take your headphones and listen to the ballgame. The time will fly by.

Re: 1st Annual FCB Community Blood Drive (w/ Prizes!) Updated!

Good job spreading the word about donating blood. Locally we run our blood drives through INOVA. All of the blood donated at our blood drives is used locally, and we have found the donation process runs much smoother with them than with the Red Cross. Of course, your results may vary. I am signed up to donate again on Saturday, October 2, 2010. I have Blood Type A Negative which is not very common so I try to donate as often as possible.

If I ever need blood, I will ask for a pint from you. I am A Negative as well.

For those wondering if it is worth the time to donate platelets, it is. Platelet donations are vital to child burn victims.

Thanks to everyone who donated or has an appointment to donate soon! If you donated and have not let myself or stu know, please post in this thread or PM either of us to let us know. That way we can include you in the prize drawing which I will do later today.

Re: 1st Annual FCB Community Blood Drive- drawing 9/24 Fri 9pm

It's too late for the drawing, but I made an effort to give blood yesterday. I have done so regularly in the past, but hadn't in a while, and reading about the drive here is largely what motivated me to go.

The blood drive here was a great idea, so thanks to everyone who gave.

Thanks a lot. This may be the first time in my life I won anything lol. More importantly though, the contest did a great job getting people out there to donate. I hope to donate again sometime in a few weeks when I am eligible again.
