Blaisdell’s Host First Blood Drive with American Red Cross

Our Blaisdell’s Team kicked off the new year by giving back to those in need. Did you know 1 blood donation can save up to 3 lives? Donating blood products is essential to community health and the need for blood products is constant. 

On Thursday, January 9th Blaisdell’s partnered with American Red Cross to host our first internal blood drive at our corporate office in Oakland, California. We had 28 registered participants with 23 of them being first-time donors! The blood drive generated a total of 24 pints of blood, which will provide 84 hospital patients with blood transfusions.
