Blood Drive a Success!

Thank you to everyone who participated in the Red Cross Blood Drive on Monday, February 20th!

On behalf of our Donor Recruitment Representative (and Ripon College Alumna!), Catherine Sewall, the Office of Community Engagement would like to pass on this note of thanks:



Dear Ripon College,

Thank you for hosting a blood drive with the American Red Cross on February 20th.

Your blood drive had a goal of collecting 40 pints, and 55 people registered to donate. Because of your efforts, a total of 47 pints of blood are now available for people in need.

All year long, in our community and across the nation, approximately 3,000 hospitals and their patients rely on the Red Cross to meet their needs for blood products. In turn, the Red Cross relies on the generosity and dedication of its coordinators, volunteers and donors to support its lifesaving mission. Please share our sincere appreciation with everyone who supported the blood drive.

On behalf of the hospitals and patients we serve, thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,

Catherine Sewall
Donor Recruitment Representative
