Win a 4-day trip for 4, including air, hotel & tickets to Walt Disney World in Orlando, worth $4,000!

ERIE, PA –Due to its great success; the Community Blood Bank of Northwest Pennsylvania is repeating its biggest promotion of 2012. From Aug. 1-31 everyone comes to give blood at the Community Blood Bank (at 26th & Peach Street) or on a mobile blood drive can enter to win a trip to Walt Disney World in Orlando! This trip is valued at $4,000 and includes airfare, hotel stay at a Disney hotel and four Park-Hopper tickets to Disney parks for four people!

The blood shortage that started earlier this month continues as more blood is being used than there are donors to give it. As the end of summer approaches people become busier and are unable to come and give blood. Labor Day Weekend is normally one of the three worst weekends of the year for blood usage so having a safe blood supply before the holiday is important for public safety. More donors are urgently needed to come give blood before things turn critical for local patients.

“Labor Day weekend is approaching fast and we need to be ready.” Said Dan Desrochers at the blood bank, “Hopefully our Give Blood: Go To Disney! promotion will give us a little magic!”
