CoxHealth has won the "Racin to Save Lives" blood drive contest with St. John's. We beat the competition by 77 donors and can now take back the trophy. Thanks to everyone who donated in the May and June blood drives.
Our next blood drive is Thursday, July 1, at Cox South in Foster Auditorium and Cox North in Fountain Plaza. Hours will be from 7 a.m. - 6 p.m. at Cox South and 7 a.m.-5 p.m. at Cox North.
This is our Salute a Veteran blood drive. Kathy Rigger, blood drive captain for CoxHealth's executive offices, says the gift is a Cox mug and a patriotic T-shirt.
Rigger says participants will be able to "give the shirt off your back" to feed hungry families in the Ozarks. Donors will have the option of declining the T-shirt and the Community Blood Center of the Ozarks will make a cash donation to Ozarks Food Harvest that will provide twelve complete meals for area residents who need the help.
CBCO is on a Code Yellow alert for A Positive and O Positive. If you are either of these blood types your donation is greatly needed. Our blood drives at Cox South and Cox North tomorrow are the only CBCO drives before the 4th of July weekend. They are depending on us to carry them through the long 4th of July weekend.
Kathy reminds us that those who give at three CoxHealth Blood Drives during 2010 you will have your name entered in a drawing for a big screen TV valued at $1500. The drawing will be held in January 2011.
