“We need approximately 800 units of blood a day in order to service the area. 2005 was a great year, and we hope that 2006 will be as well, otherwise that blood that we have will begin to deplete, it really is an ongoing need.”
“Our donors are the key to maintaining our supplies. It's always great to do something to help someone else by donating blood, but it's also nice to receive a little something for the effort. That's why we have the extra incentives. While you can't repay someone for the gift of life, this is our way of saying 'thank you' for giving to someone else.”
“KSBJ sponsors two Blood Drives each year. This is their 19th year to benefit the Blood Center. That's a very impressive record and we are so grateful for their efforts. They were even at the opening of The Woodlands Neighborhood Donor Center.”
“Spring Break is such an important time to donate. Kids are out of school, parents are busy and there's not as much time to go and donate. That's why the Blood Center will have (several donation sites) throughout the month of March.”
