Drive For Life X — A Mile High Milestone
Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007Unbelievable to think that today is the 10th Annual Denver Broncos Community Blood Drive with Bonfils Center. As of about 2:30, we have collected over 1,000 units of blood — each of them with the potential to save up to three lives in need. What a great day!!!!
Our team once again has represented our organization with such class and professionalism — Louis Green, our resident early riser, was here at 7 a.m. welcoming the morning’s very first life-saving donors. Shortly thereafter, donors saw the likes of Nick Ferguson, Brian Clark, Domenik Hixon, Nate Webster, Elvis Dumervil, Steve Cargile, Andre Hall, Antwon Burton, Mike Leach (who was pulling double duty today as he then went on to his monthly visit to the pediatric ward at Presbyterian/St. Luke’s . . .above and beyond) just to name a few.
Nate Jackson, Tony Scheffler, Chris Kuper and Chris Meyers joined some of their teammates in the afternoon. Nate, by the way, is going to help us with a special mural, the “All Ready” wall, at the new Darrent Williams Memorial Teen Center by giving permission to have some of his wonderfully written tributes to Darrent scripted into the mural . Thank you, Nate.
