🩸 14 Years of Giving Back & Saving Lives! ❤️
Yesterday, Earp hosted our *14th Annual Blood Drive*, and we’re incredibly proud of the impact our employees and community have made over the years!
Since our first blood drive, we have:
🩸 Collected 324 pints of blood
❤️ Welcomed 289 donors
👏 Averaged 23 pints per drive
Yesterday, we added another 20 units of blood to that total!
As a little extra thank-you to our employees who rolled up their sleeves and donated, our owner, Cliff Earp, generously donated $500 to raffle off among participants. Congratulations to our very own HR Generalist, Kendra Courter, who was the lucky winner! 🎉💰
We also want to give a HUGE shoutout to Betsy Thorman, the mastermind behind our blood drives for the past 14 years. ❤️ Betsy works hard every year to encourage participation, organize the event, and make it a success. We’re incredibly grateful for her dedication—not only every day, but especially for continuing to make this lifesaving event a priority year after year. Thank you, Betsy! 👏🩸
This year was extra special because, for the first time, we were excited to welcome some of our McDonald’s Owner/Operators to participate alongside us! A big thank-you to Chris and Codee LeCornu and Mike Dobski for joining us and helping support such an important cause. 🍟❤️
Thank you to everyone who donated, participated, and helped make our 14th Annual Blood Drive a success. It only takes a little bit of time to make a potentially lifesaving difference.
Here’s to 14 years of rolling up our sleeves and giving back! 🩸❤️
