Two years ago, on the 10th anniversary of the horrific 9/11 attacks we launched a nationwide campaign called "Muslims For Life". The goal was to raise 10,000 units of blood and save 30,000 - 10 times the number of lives lost on 9-11-01. Due to the tremendous support we received nationwide from our fellow citizens the program became a yearly event. Since the program began two years ago we have raised about 23,000 units of blood - the goal this month is for another 12,000 units of blood. If we reach that number by next month then we would have helped save over 100,000 lives!
You can be a part of this great cause and contribute this year on:
Date: SEPTEMBER 8th (Sunday)
Time: 8am-5pm
Location: Bethlehem Community Center (2900 Farmersville Road - Bethlehem, PA 18020) (less than 5 minutes from Routes 78, 33, 22)
We have partnered with Miller Keystone Blood Center to help us collect the units of blood which staylocally and help people right here in the Lehigh Valley.
Please come out to donate blood and help save lives.
If you haven't donated in the past this would be a great opportunity to start! If you can't donate get someone else to come out and donate.
Previous Lehigh Valley 9/11 blood drives were attended/covered by:
US Congressman Charlie Dent, Channel 2 News, The Morning Call, The Express Times, Bethlehem Patch.
Please contact me anytime to schedule your appointment or with any questions/concerns. Walk ins are also welcome, but you may have to wait depending on the schedule.
Please pass this message to your family, friends, colleagues, acquaintances.
Thank you,
