    Thank you, heroes!

    We couldn’t ensure hospital patients have another chance at life without you! Your donation will potentially help save the lives of three people you may never meet. The patients we serve, and their friends and family thank you.

     

    Your blood drives made a HUGE difference:

    Your blood drives on June 30th and July 2nd registered 65 donors and collected 63 pints of blood. This means last weeks blood drives will potentially save 189 lives over the coming week!

    Grant Ticknor's right femur was shattered in a car crash early this spring, and it hasn’t healed properly since the initial injury, leaving him unable to bear weight. He has been unable to take part in typical activities such as mowing and driving.

    A friend and fellow Shriner, Bob Duff, helped out by mowing his lawn every week. Then Duff presented Ticknor with a radio-controlled lawn mower so he could get back to tackling his own yardwork.

    “Being Shriners, we’re there to help kids and to help one another," Duff said.
