2011 PFG's Helena Office Gives Blood and Encourages Others
Inspired by a colleague currently being treated for cancer, DeAnna Anderson, an employee benefits account manager at Payne Financial's Helena office, organized a blood drive at their offices on September 21, 2011. The Red Cross collected blood from 17 donors.
Here are DeAnna's Top 10 reasons people should give blood:
1. It's a free way to help people in need.
2. It's a safe and a healthy thing to do-you get a free mini physical, including blood pressure check, heart rate, temperature and iron level test.
3. There is a massive shortage in the United States right now.
4. In Montana, every 27 minutes someone needs blood.
5. In the United States, every 2 seconds someone needs blood.
6. About 38 percent of the population is eligible to donate and only 8 percent actually do.
7. The Red Cross has a goal of 700 pints of blood per week in the Montana service area.
8. It's super easy.
9. 60 percent of the population will need blood at some point in their lives. You may need it one day.
10. You can help save someone's life...maybe even someone you love.
