I work for Blood Assurance, a blood bank in Chattanooga, Tennessee and I made my every 56 day donation of whole blood.
My philosophy is that if I ask someone to donate I need to donate myself. Today’s draw took a speedy 5 minutes because I prepared by hydrating and having a good meal before. This saves 3 lives.
Good for you Tony. Keep up the good work.

Yay! Congrats on another donation. Our next church blood drive is Saturday, April 7th, and it’s our 18th anniversary drive. It’s hard to believe that my dad helped start this effort in April 2000. Today, my dad and two co-coordinators were honored as “Blood Drive Heroes” at the inaugural “Celebration of Heroes” luncheon for the Coastal Chapter of the American Red Cross. I was honored to accept my dad’s award on his behalf. There are so many heroes in our area, it’s astounding. Thank you for saving lives!!

Awesome! I would love to be a regular blood donor. But every blood bank I have tried wouldn’t take my AB negative blood, because it is such a rare type that it’s never needed.

I would love to donate blood if I didn’t have so many medical conditions. Great Job, Tony! ☺ I’m very thankful for people like you who make a difference for the better in our society 😊.
