Teddy Bears &
Friends for Wayne Healthcare patients blood drive
DARKE COUNTY, OH Community Blood Center (CBC) For 19 years four
area Lions Clubs have made hospital visits to Wayne HealthCare
emergency room, urgent care, or hospital stays, during the Holiday
Season, a little more comforting. These area Lions Clubs have
provided funding to purchase Teddy Bears and other stuffed animals,
which are passed out to Wayne HealthCare patients, during the Holiday
Season.
First the Teddy Bears & Friends had to make a visit to the Annual
Blood Drive sponsored by the four area Lions Clubs, which are: Arcanum,
Gettysburg, Greenville, and Pitsburg. Every donor who registered
to donate blood was asked to select a stuffed animal of their choice,
sign a special gift tag, and attach it to their favorite stuffed
animal. Then over 150 stuffed animals were delivered to Wayne
HealthCare and given out to their patients during the Holiday Season.
The Lions Clubs hosted a successful blood drive registering. 134 donors
and collecting 127 total donation. The Lions Clubs of Arcanum,
Gettysburg, Greenville, and Pitsburg also provided and served
refreshments to the blood donors. Greenville Lions Club also presented
a check to Dana Puterbaugh CBC Account Representative for Teddy Bear
Project.
