Hey guys,
It's back and better than ever! The SAU QLD Blood Drive has been arranged for the 26th of October at the Edward St Donor Centre. The Red Cross has even been kind enough to organise parking for us - just working out the finer details of that at present.
Donating blood is a great cause and each litre can save 3 lives! Remarkable cause and with the great turnout we had last time, thought that we should do it again. Only, there's something a little different this time.... IT'S A COMPETITION!
After our last effort, Oscar from SAU VIC contacted me asking if they can conduct one as well. I mentioned that maybe we should make this huge and get the other states involved.... So, now we have SAU:SA, SAU NSW and SAU VIC coming to the party. They have contacted their respective donor centres and are all donating on the same day. The aim is for 150 donors over the eastern seaboard (and SA) from SAU on the one day.
Can you donate? http://www.donateblood.com.au/who-can-give/am-i-eligible
Who: Friends and Family of SAU QLD Members
What: Blood Drive to assist those in need
When: Saturday, 26 October, 2013. From 9am through to 2:30pm.
Where: Red Cross Blood Service, Edward St Donor Centre, Upper Ground Floor, 288 Edward St, Brisbane
Parking options will be provided once I have cemented it with the Red Cross
Why: Because donating blood is a great cause. It gives you a chance to help those in need, laugh at those who pass out/faint and smash VIC, SA and NSW
How: Register your interest and we will then secure a time for you.
Post up any questions here and one of the exec will answer it shortly. Alternatively, use the hyperlink in my sig to email me.
Last time we had 20-something donors, this time the target is still 30. Plasma also counts.
Let's get it happening and flog these guys!
Cheers,
Tony
