American Red Cross Blood Drive
Cuivre River Electric Cooperative will sponsor an American Red Cross Blood Drive on Tuesday, February 5, 2008 from 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM in the Community Room at the CREC Troy Headquarters.
We all expect blood to be there for us, but barely a fraction of those who can give do. Yet sooner or later, virtually all of us will face a time of great vulnerability in which we will need blood. And that time is all too often unexpected.
From its beginning, the American Red Cross has formed a community of service, of generous, strong and decent people bound by beliefs beyond themselves. The honor, spirit and resources of the American people comes forth with neighbors helping neighbors in need — during earthquakes, floods, fires, storms — and also for the deeply personal and often quiet disasters that require a gift of blood.
To help you remember to schedule your blood donations and other regular screening tests, the College of American Pathologists encourages you to sign up for an e-mail reminder today at www.MyHealthTestReminder.com.
