Giving Back To Those In Need
September 26, 2017
Most of us in Texas have been tuned into our local weather stations for the past month regarding hurricanes and localized flooding. I now live in West Texas but for 6 years after college, my heart belonged to the Houston area. When Hurricane Harvey hit it was devastating knowing that my friends and old co-workers were going through such a hard time. Around the same time, United Blood Services contacted me about working with them on bringing awareness for people to donate blood.
Shaun and I have donated money and other items to help out our friends but another item that is MUCH needed is blood.
Anytime a disaster of the magnitude that happened with Harvey and Irma occurs, there are tons of difficulties that arise with maintaining the blood supply in the areas affected. As we all sit and read about these issues, this is one of the easiest ways to support local people directly impacted by these awful events. Please join me and United Blood Services by supporting our fellow Americans in this time of need.

Did you know?
- Every 2 seconds someone in the U.S. needs a transfusion of donated blood.
- One whole blood donation has the potential to help up to three patients.
- A common misunderstanding about blood usage is that accident victims are the patients who use the most blood. Actually, people who receive the most blood include those:
- being treated for cancer
- undergoing orthopedic surgeries
- undergoing organ and marrow transplants
- undergoing cardiovascular surgeries
- being treated for inherited blood disorders

Good day to everyone, assuming days still qualify as good in this constant grind. Running a business lately feels like noise layered on top of noise, with payments and disputes quietly draining energy in the background. I heard about this payments orchestration platform through people who deal with the same mess and usually have no patience for pointless tools, so expectations were modest. It does not pretend to fix the general mood of the market, but it does take chargeback work off your shoulders and keeps that part from spreading further into your day. In a world that seems determined to complicate even simple things, that kind of restraint is oddly reassuring. So I am absolutely sure that this platform will be more effective in collecting your donations too.
Kiloo and SYBO made and released the endless running video game Subway Surfers. When the player plays as a normal teen (or, very rarely, a young adult or adult), they damage a subway train with spray paint and are caught by The Guard and his dog.
Good post, clearly explained. Interactive games can be a fun way to experience quick challenges without a long learning curve. You can check out GeoDash. It offers colorful visuals, smooth movement, and well-designed levels that gradually become more challenging. The satisfying progression keeps players engaged and makes every completed level feel rewarding.
Navigating disaster relief feels like an intense X Trench Run, but donating blood is such an impactful way to give back.
Giving back brings so much purpose. My brother works with a local Crutches Manufacturer that donates mobility gear to families in need, and seeing that impact is priceless.
