Imagine, for just 2 seconds, that your life hangs in the balance and the only people that can save you from certain death, are complete strangers.

I do not have to imagine it, I live it - everyday. Instead of being a victim of a rare blood disorder or the survivor of a near death experience, I choose to be a LIVING TESTIMONY of the need for blood donors. As an advocate and spokesperson working with the nation's two largest blood collection organizations, I hope to connect donors to the lives they save through education, encouragement and open communication. Together, we can save lives, one pint at a time.


Every 2 seconds, someone requires a blood transfusion to live.

That's why "It's Hip 2 Give!"

Thanks-4-Giving Blood Drive

For some time I have been advocating for donors, thanking them personally and lending a hand when needed. Now, I'm taking on the effort of coordinating a blood drive.

Do I have the details ironed out? Well, they are coming together and it will be taking place in November, the date is TBD just now but it will be a "Thanks-4-Giving" Blood Drive. Thanking donors for the gift of life they give and connecting them to the many lives they are saving.

You'll have to stay tuned for the details and all of the fun things that will be taking place, but in the meantime - donate now so that you'll be ready for this drive to donate again!
