Thank You For Your Blood
April 10, 2013
GNS MEN’S CLUB BLOOD DRIVE THANKS
Sincere thanks to the 63 generous individuals who participated in the GNS Men’s Club Blood Drive this past Sunday. Your collective efforts donated 65 units of blood to benefit the ill and injured of our community. Thank you also to the volunteers who helped run the blood drive, including Daniel Bronheim, Milt Mitzner, Sam Levitt, Mark Friedman, Amanda Heisler, Hilly Milun, Brittney, Brianna, Brayden and Bryce Kohler, and Alexander, Oliver and Sophia Rein. Special thanks also to Dario and his crew.
Blood Drive April 7, 2013
March 19, 2013
Dear Friends,
How often do you get the chance to save a life? And how often
does that chance to save a life not require either (a) attending
years of grueling medical school; (b) taking the firefighters’
exam; or (c) sitting by a swimming pool in the baking sun for
hours on end with a whistle in your mouth?
Well here’s your chance to be a hero and save a life without any
of that kind of effort. It’s the Blood Drive, run by the GNS
Men’s Club, which will be held on the morning of Sunday,
April 7 in the Gym at Great Neck Synagogue. If you haven’t
taken part before, don’t worry, it’s quick, it’s easy, it doesn’t
hurt, and all the technical work is handled by skilled technicians
from the New York Blood Center. Your participation is especially
needed at this time as blood supplies remain at critically
low levels following disruptions from Sandy and other winter
storms.
So, how do you know if you can take part? Well, first you have
to have a pulse. But if you are reading this e-mail then,
congratulations, you have passed that test! There are also some
other simple requirements too, which you can read about, as well
as learning more about the process, at
http://www.nybloodcenter.org/ If you are 16 or 17, you will
need written parental consent on a form that we can provide.
It’s easy to book an appointment. Appointments are available
from 8:15 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and, while you are welcome simply
to show up on the day, priority will be given to those who have
booked appointments in advance. You can book an appointment
on-line by clicking here:
https://drm.nybloodcenter.org/PublicScheduler/
GroupWelcome.aspx?Group=03872
You can also book an appointment by e-mail to
reind@sullcrom.com or by telephone on 212-558-3035. (When
you do so, please provide a preferred time on any 15 minute
increment).
If you can’t give, but would be willing to help by volunteering to
assist with registration and other tasks for some portion of the
morning, please let us know at the above email or phone
number. Adults, as well as students 12 and over, are welcome to
volunteer and we’re happy to help students get chessed hours.
Finally, as a token of appreciation, everyone who donates or
volunteers will also receive a special gift. The gifts include your
choice of:
– 100% cotton beach towel
– All-in-one USB Flash Drive/Pen/Laser Pointer
– 44-inch umbrella with wood handle
– Embroidered baseball cap.
All participants will also receive a complimentary breakfast, not
to mention the respect and admiration of your friends.
We look forward to hearing from you and seeing you on April 7.
