Our Final Drive

A heartfelt thanks to all the donors who came through the door on 8 April 2014 to say goodbye to the troops and donate one last time.  We saw 70 faces, some familiar and some new.  Each one made a difference in a soldier's life.

Thank you to all who came out.  If you are interested in local drives there is an annual drive in Elkin and a more frequent one in Asheboro.  Please let us know if you would like to be added to those distribution lists.

For those who are traveling through Fayetteville and would like to donate the the Donor Center you can make an appointment by visiting http://www.militaryblood.dod.mil/.  If we can come up with a good number for you to call the Ft. Bragg Donor Center directly, we'll pass that along.

At the request of some of you, here is a link to a web site that allows you to check on military-related charities and what are their various expenses, such as administrative and actual program costs:  http://www.charitynavigator.org

 

Some charities that get four star ratings are:  Air Warrior Courage Foundation, Fisher House Foundation, Navy Seal Foundation, Operation Home Front, and Special Operations Warrior Foundation.

Again, we are humbled by the compassion our donors have shown tirelessly over the years.  It has been our honor to meet each and every one of you.
