“The finest gesture one can make is to save life by donating blood.”
Mark your calendar and help us honor the life of our dear Jen Banks, by participating in the “Fourth Annual Jen Banks Memorial Blood Drive” and pay forward the gift of life. This gesture will take you just minutes, but it will help those in need of this gift for a lifetime. Not only will we celebrate Jen’s life on this day, we will also carry on her legacy of helping others and making a beautiful impact on the world.
