What: 2007 Holiday National Charity Blood Drive
When: The drive begins on December 1st 2007 and ends on January 15th 2008.
Who: This drive to open to all current US Members in good standing
 
How: Members are free to donate to any recognized reputable blood collection organization (American Red Cross, BloodNet, HeathSouth, for a few examples.) that is convenient to them or their local organizational unit (chapter/domain).  This drive encompasses whole blood and partial blood donations. Partial blood donation refers to aphaeresis, i.e. plasma or platelets. As always monetary compensation must be refused or donated to charity in order to receive the prestige award.
 
The member is required to submit proof to their local coordinator as to: the date of the donation, what was donated (whole blood, plasma, or platelets), and the organization to whom it was donated. All blood collection centers provide the donor with some paperwork to take with them, this will fulfill the documentation requirement nicely. The local coordinator should compile all information into a single separate report to their Regional Coordinator due no later than January 15th. (Yes, you can wait until then to report them all at once). The report format must be:
  Date of Donation   Member Name   Cam Number    Donation    Organization
 
For Example
            12-7-07             Bob Smith          US200202000    Whole Blood      American Red Cross
            12-11-07           Mary Jones        US200701000    Platelets                        HeathSouth
 
The Regional Coordinators will collect all of the local reports into one big regional summary and send to me, and I’m aiming for these awards to be listed in my report released at the end of January. These awards will be awarded specific to the month of December under Community Service. All standard prestige guidelines for Blood Donations and the Community Service Category are in effect.
  FAQ1 – I just donated, do I loose out?
            No, even though the awards will be awarded for the month of December, the extra 2 weeks into January were included to allow members that may have just donated to still be able to participate. This will allow for the required waiting period between whole blood donations to elapse. 
   FAQ2 - Can I donate Platelets more than once during the drive and receive prestige for both?
Yes, per the Camarilla Council Resolution 20051006-01-NC, a member may receive prestige for donating blood up to twice in any given month. The award amounts will be the same for Platelets, Plasma, or Whole Blood.         
    FAQ3 – I can’t donate because of Dange Fever concerns, what about me?
            Members that can not donate, for any reason, are encouraged to be involved from the aspect of helping to transport members to blood centers (10 per trip, max of 20 for the month), or help out at the donation sites by the volunteering of time. These activities will also be worth national prestige.
     FQA4 – Sheesh, a blood drive? What about something new?
            New Charity activities are under consideration at this very moment, so be watchful. Those members that know me personally know that I spent several years in law enforcement, as well as several years in the medical field. At this time of year, community resources are stretched extremely thin, something that I have witnessed first hand. 
 
Should any member have any additional questions, please contact me (pearce at tampabay.rr.com).
