Vmo Aircraft Leasing Hosts San Francisco Blood Drive on April 6

Giving blood is an essential act of kindness and generosity that saves lives. As we enter the spring season, the need for blood donations remains critical. Hospitals and healthcare facilities rely on the generosity of blood donors to help patients who require blood transfusions due to surgery, accidents, and medical conditions such as anemia and cancer. 

With a severe blood shortage in the U.S., the Vmo Philanthropy Team is teaming up with Vitalant to host the Vmo Blood Drive on Thursday, April 6, 2023, in the Bloodmobile in front of Vmo’s San Francisco office. 

“Every two seconds someone in the U.S. needs blood. We can all make an incredible impact on the blood supply in our community by coming together during our upcoming blood drive,” says Terri Woodfolk, Vmo's Office Manager / Executive Administrator.  “We’re inviting family members, friends, and colleagues to join us in donating to help ensure patients in our community have the blood that they need when they need it.”
