Subject: Ugly Area Blood Supplies - Our Attention Needed

Looks like it's time to give some blood, folks...

ATEO's next blood drive will be held right after the Memorial Day
holiday, on Wednesday, June 1.   The Red Cross advises that all
holiday weekends drain available blood supplies; after all, when
likely blood donors are out of town, they don't donate.  Hard on the
heels of that major holiday, the timing of our next drive will be
hugely challenging, but that's no accident.  We get scheduled at tough
times because, drive after drive, people on this campus deliver.

A Red Cross note which reached me today indicates that blood supplies
in the 5-county metro area are at all time lows.  Take a look:

        O positive -  86 units on hand and we should have
972..........6 hour supply
        B negative - 6 units on hand and we should have 57..........  
 6 hour supply
        O negative - 58 units on hand and we should have 228........23
hour supply
        A negative - 111 units on hand and we should have
168........48 hour supply
        B positive - 226 units on hand and we should have 273.......60
hour supply

Not even one of these blood types has an available 3 day safety
margin.  Can you imagine having an emergency need in your own life and
learning that low supplies like these just wouldn't support your need?
 Wow!   That's why the pints you and I donate on June 1 will matter so
very much.

If you're healthy, if it's been 56 days since your last donation, and
if you're willing to invest an hour at ATNPC on June 1, you can do a
world of good.  Our drive will run from 7 AM - 5:45 PM.  Please visit
the Red Cross' registration website at
https://www.givelife.org/index.cfm?hlc=ford13  and sign up today.
