One blood donation can help save up to three lives. That means a lot to patients in need, but it took on a new meaning recently. Michael Goeddeke. Age 76, passed peacefully from this earth on November 19, 2018. Over his lifetime, he donated more than 29 gallons (177 Units) of blood. This means, Michael helped save the lives of 531 people.
What better way to celebrate Michael’s life than by "giving the gift of life"! Join in reaching our "177 units by September 3, 2019" goal and ensure that patients receive the life saving blood they need. Make and keep one or more appointments to give blood to the American Red Cross between now and September 3rd (Mike’s Birthday).
Challenge your friends (or anyone for that matter) to a friendly competition! Who will win the battle to do the most social good for your community?
Put your virtual blood drive campaign against one or even multiple other campaigns to see who can recruit more blood donors for the American Red Cross.
