Washington DC Jewish Community Center blood drive December 13, 2007

Rachel Posner, Trinity Hall alum, is organizing this year's blood drive and wanted to recruit fellow Cantab graduates for this excellent cause.

Why give?

• All donations will stay in the Washington area filling a desperately needed supply:
  
• Every 17 seconds, someone in the Washington area receives blood


• Only 5% of the eligible population donates blood you will be part of it
• 
  
• One out of every 10 people will use blood before the age of 70


• One blood donation can save four lives

It's Safe, Simple, and Rewarding...

• Only one pint of blood is given during donation, which is quickly replaced by the body.


• Each unit of blood undergoes 9 extensive state-of-the-art tests to ensure that the blood is safe for donation.


• You will be notified (confidentially) if any of the tests show abnormal results.


• Delicious sweets to eat after making your blood donation!
