2019 Blood Drive a Success

Posted by Jim Dopler on Mar 18, 2019

Our 2019 Community Blood Drive was a great success, with 25 units of blood collected in just five hours.

Thanks to the Rotary Club of Lake Zurich for sharing a booth with us at the 2019 "Everything Expo" sponsored by the Lake Zurich Area Chamber of Commerce.

The Lake Zurich Club sponsored the RILEE trailer at the event to educate the community about polio.

Participants in the event from our Club included: Greg Cardelli, Lyle Staab, Linh Bailey, Sara Knight, Jim Dopler and George Dorner.

The event was coordinated with our local Vitalant Blood Bank by Jim Dopler.
