Did you know:
• Every two seconds someone needs blood
• Approximately 41,000 units of blood are used each day in the U.S.
• Only 7% of the U.S. population gives blood
• The demand for blood is transfusions is growing faster than the rate of donation
The Fun Committee is interested in hosting a blood drive here at CCFL for the Nebraska Community Blood Bank. We have spoken with a coordinator at the blood bank and have gotten approval from Eve to move forward with the event. Now all we need is you guys! A minimum of 25 people must pledge to donate blood on the selected date to make this happen. We are targeting the drive for September or October and would like to get your feedback about what days and times you could commit to donating. Please fill out the Doodle poll below by selecting all the dates you are available, and whether a morning and/or afternoon block would work best for each day. Obviously the goal is to get consensus on a date and time block that will work for everyone, so any flexibility you have is appreciated!
To make sure you are able to donate, please refer to the blood bank’s eligibility criteria here: https://www.ncbb.org/am-i-eligible
