MAY 30TH 2009

Hey guys...on Saturday, May 30th from 8am to 2pm we are going to be hosting a blood drive at Lakewood Forest Residents club for Luke and MD Anderson. Last year alone MD Anderson had to use 121,000 packs of platelets for their patients. They need our help to stock the blood bank!

We will be giving away shirts and doing raffle entries for some pretty sweet prizes for those that donate blood or platelets. For those that cannot donate we will be selling shirts and raffle tickets and all the money will go to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society! I would love for you all to come out and support Luke even if you cannot donate so here is what i need...anyone that is interested in donating needs to contact me at my number or e-mail address below so I can get an idea of how many people will be donating...the more the merrier!!! Also, when you send me an e-mail or talk to me let me know what time you would like to donate so I can put you in a slot, pretty much every 15 minutes someone can donate (give or take). Their will also be opportunities for a few people to donate platelets, these are much needed in cancer patients because they help the blood clot so without them a patient can lose a lot of blood, the problem is it takes about 1.5 hours to donate so if you have the time to do it we would love to have you and we will be giving you extra raffle tickets if you decide to donate platelets!

You have no idea how much giving blood can help people so please come out, get a shirt, and maybe win a cool prize and support the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society! Luke will also be there and maybe we can convince him to sing a bit if he feels well enough!

Talk to you all soon

  1. Hey Kendall do you know what the requirements are for being a donor? My mom had heard that you can't have aspirin or something.

  2. Guys, I think we are all coming down to do this. Mikey knew about this somehow last night when he got home from track at 8:30 p.m. Will he be unable to donate since he's not reached 17 yet? He'll be so disappointed.

    I'm seriously checking flights and SW now flies from LaGuardia so we're trying to see if Loggie can come with Mikey and me.

    Love you all!
