This year, our Club has joined efforts with Weymouth United Masonic Lodge and the friends and family of the Crocker Family for our Annual Blood Drive in hopes of helping more people by combined efforts!
The Red Cross has only allotted 45 appointments for this joint effort...so you are HIGHLY ENCOURAGED to make an appointment and not walk-in as we are not sure you'll be able to contribute as a walk-in at the event.
Our ‘Why’:
Catherine Crocker died on October 10, 2007, due to injuries she sustained in a car accident the night before. The doctors fighting for Catherine's life used 28 units of donated blood the night of her car accident to try to sustain her life. While their efforts failed, the blood that pumped through her veins gave her family hope in the fight for her life. A memorial blood drive is hosted by her family every year in her honor to celebrate her memory and make a difference in her name.
Blood is needed for many different kids of patients. It could be a young child with a rare blood disorder, a family member fighting cancer, or a loved one involved in a car accident. It's a simple donation that could change or save a life! Every unit of blood has the potential to save three lives!
Book an appointment to donate at this special blood drive, walk in and roll up a sleeve last minute, or simply stop by to spread some love! If you can't make it on the actual day, you can always donate blood at your local blood drive in her memory!
