Subject: Donate Blood and Support Local Pediatric Cancer Patients!
September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, and we want to help support local families! Blood Assurance is partnering with the Kiwanis Club of Nashville and The Rally Foundation to host a blood drive on Saturday, September 21st. Join us at Blood Assurance’s downtown facility from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and help provide life-saving blood and platelets for pediatric cancer patients in need.
Children undergoing cancer treatment often require multiple blood and platelet transfusions to fight infections, endure chemotherapy, and recover from surgeries. By donating, you’re giving these young warriors the strength to continue their battle. Blood Assurance is the primary supplier for most hospitals in Middle Tennessee, including Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital and TriStar Centennial Children's Hospital.
They are the secondary supplier for the remainder, so your donation makes a direct impact in our community.
Event details: Date: Saturday, September 21st
Time: 10 a.m. - 3 p.m.
Location: Blood Assurance, 2817 West End Ave, Suite 200, Nashville, TN
Bonus: All donors will be automatically entered to win a $500 Visa gift card for Fall Break!
Walk-ins are welcome, but you can schedule your appointment in advance at bloodassurance.org/rally, or by calling 800-962-0628.
