American red cross says Thank You

By John Petersen American Red Cross

Editor:
The American Red Cross would like to thank the people of Utah for supporting our many blood drives during the summer of 2010. Without the help of dedicated sponsors and donors across Utah, the American Red Cross would not be able to maintain an adequate blood supply. Because of your generous donations, we were able to achieve our collection goals for June, July and August. These are definitely our toughest months of the year to collect blood.
This goal could not have been possible without the help of many loyal blood donors. We’d like to extend our thanks to all the local radio stations for running our public service announcements. We would also like to thank the many corporate sponsors for donating food and refreshments for our donors. And a very special thank you to the donors who took time to give blood this summer.
Thank you again for supporting Red Cross Blood Services. Because of donors and supporters like you, we successfully met our collection goals and more importantly made sure there would be blood available to patients in need. We could not do this without the tremendous support from our community.
