SUMMER IS HOT TIME TO FOCUS ON SAVING LIVES

RACE RED FORD FOCUS GIVEAWAY CAMPAIGN IS UNDERWAY AT CBC

DAYTON & DARKE COUNTY, Ohio – Don’t let the lazy, hazy days of summer distract you from your good intentions of giving blood and saving lives. Focus your attention on donating with Community Blood Center (CBC) this summer and you could be driving a bright new “race red” Ford Focus sedan by fall.
The “iFocus on Saving Lives” summer giveaway campaign is underway at CBC. Everyone age 18 or older who registers to donate at any CBC branch or mobile blood drive now through Saturday, Sept. 2 is automatically registered into the drawing for a 2012 Ford Focus.

CBC is launching the summer campaign with the “iFocus, iChange Local Lives, the Power is in Your Hands” t-shirt. The red, white and blue flag design t-shirt is free to anyone who registers to donate now through Saturday, June 23 at any CBC branch or mobile blood drive.

The Ford Focus giveaway follows in the tire tracks of last summer’s wildly popular drawing for a new Jeep Patriot. “Our donors keep telling us they love our summer car giveaway campaign,” said CBC Donor Relations Director Andrew Keelor. “We value the commitment they make to donating during the busy summer months, and the Focus is a great way to say thank you. This car is a great combination of style and value, plus it’s the perfect color – race red!”

The “iFocus on Saving Lives” Ford Focus summer giveaway campaign is sponsored by REACH Magazine and Dave Knapp Ford Lincoln of Greenville. Official rules are available at www.givingblood.com.
