Be A Hero Drive

September 1st, 2020 by

Thank you to everyone that came out to Our Be a Hero Drive at Kendall Toyota of Eugene on August 19th. Guests were able to donate blood, join the bone marrow registry, learn more about organ donation, and enjoy a delicious lunch from the Eugene Emeralds Pitchin Kitchen. We also want to give a big thanks to American Red Cross, Be The Match, Donate Life NW and the Eugene Emeralds for helping make this event a huge success.

Did you know that every 10 minutes, someone in the US will be added to the transplant waiting lists. The number of people on the waiting list keeps getting longer, while the number of donors falls significantly behind.

Don’t worry if you couldn’t make it to our Be A Hero Drive. You can still register with Donate Life NW and find out more here: https://www.donatelifenw.org/   If you would like to register to donate blood with American Red Cross, visit: https://www.redcross.org/local/oregon/about-us/locations/southwest-oregon-chapter.html
