Blood Drive July 13th Thank-You

The Carr Family would like to express our deepest thanks to everyone who came out and gave blood for Tia Carr on Saturday July 13th. Taking time out of your summer to help support those in need of blood donations means so much to our family and millions of others across the nation. Each summer there is a major blood shortage, and we had almost a 100 people donate and collected 76 units of blood. It may not seem like a huge difference in the grand scheme of things, but we together we made a small sacrifice that raised awareness to hundreds of people across the community. Thank you for showing your support and we hope to see you next time. Save the dates Nov. 22 and May 2 (at OHS)

 

We would also like to thank the American Red Cross for their diligent efforts as always. Our thanks are also extended to My Sisters Lil Donut Shoppe, Jimmy Johns, TGIF, Rosati's Pizza, Village Grind, Dairy Hut, Sports Clips, Local Newspapers, Prayer Warriors, and the many friends and family that helped out every step of the way. It means so much to Tia that so many people care about helping her and helping others like her. It really lifts her spirit. As her sister, I am truly grateful to all of you who join in our fight to save lives.
Thank you again, 

Trisha Carr & the Carr Crew
