Nov 11 ARC 2nd Annual Veterans Day Blood Drive, Charlotte

On Veterans Day, November 11th, we will roll up our sleeves and help save lives at the Charlotte Motor Speedway!  The American Red Cross and Charlotte Motor Speedway are partnering to hold our second annual Veterans Day Blood Drive.  Those of us who are veterans or have veterans or active military in our families can make a big difference by donating blood on Veterans Day!  To sign up, go to http://redcrossblood.org and enter “Veterans”.

 

Each pint of blood collected can help save up to three lives and will touch the lives of so many more.  What a great way to honor our veterans and make an impact on people in our community and across the country.  We are excited about this Veterans Day initiative and are eager to make the second year a great success!  This year, the drive will be held indoors in the Paddock in the Track Infield.

 

Let’s show our community and the patients in need of blood just how much we can do.  Although several people have already signed up for the drive, there are plenty of appointments still available.  So please come out and donate!

 

If you would like to volunteer at the drive, please contact me directly.

 

It’s not every day that we can do something that has a lifesaving impact.  Let’s  blow this out of the water!  I’m looking forward to seeing you there!

 

Serve now, serve all, serve together,

David
