Coffee Memorial Help Needed Please
Good morning. We could really use some help with the local blood supply. As of this morning, our O-‘s are desperately low and O+ and A- are not stable. Can you please share the word and ask your friends and family to please come donate? Either at our center at 7500 Wallace Blvd. or a mobile drive.
We are also doing a 10K Vacay giveaway for all donors that donate between today and September 7th and all donors stand a chance to win that amazing package. This Saturday we also have an awesome fun blood drive called GameDay at Coffee Memorial from 11am to 4pm. There will be tons of Dallas Cowboy prizes, BUT one donor will win a Dallas Cowboys package valued at $2,250!!!!
We appreciate you all so much for helping us in our lifesaving mission.

When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, ‘I used everything you gave me’.
