GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.–CU*Answers recently held its second blood drive with Michigan Blood, with overwhelming success.
“We were able to fill all of our donation appointments with great support from our CU*Answers and Xtend teams to provide 30 pints of blood and four double red donations,” said Communi7y Crew team member Kasey Woodhead, who led the event.
Due to the success of the last two events, the Communi7y Crew has already scheduled the next blood drive for Dec. 11. Michigan Blood provides blood for over 40 hospitals throughout Michigan. CU*Answers’ Communi7y Crew promotes the spirit of the 7 Cooperative Principles by encouraging employees, their families, and friends in the active participation of charitable community events. The group was initially designed and formed by participants of the CUSO’s Be an Innovator program, an employee-led group that seeks to foster staff innovation and involvement.
