– November Calendar Request: Blood Donors Save Kids Like Nathan (November Public Blood Drives)- Cities: Carefree, Cave Creek, Fountain Hills & Scottsdale
Did you know . . . every month, it takes about 1,250 blood donors to save the lives of kids in Arizona’s two largest children’s hospitals. Blood donors save kids like 4-year-old Nathan who has required more than 58 blood transfusions. The Casa Grande toddler was born with a rare disorder that causes his red blood cells to rapidly break apart. Every month, he relies on the generosity of strangers to donate lifesaving blood – a need that will most likely continue the rest of his life. “To all the donors out there, I would like to say that you have gone above and beyond to save my son’s life and the lives of others,” expressed his mother April. “Without blood transfusions, I would have lost my little boy!”
Because blood has a shelf life of 42 days, donations given in November can save lives through Thanksgiving – the longest extended holiday weekend of the year. To make an appointment to transform lives by donating blood, call 877-25-VITAL (877-258-4825)) or visit www.BloodHero.com (enter your city or zip code).
