IBEW 1245 boosts blood drives in Redding & Chico

August 29, 2013

Summer is a tough time to collect blood donations. Students are on summer break and many regular donors are on vacation.

That made IBEW 1245’s participation in 2013 Summer Classic Blood Drive especially important. On Aug. 9, IBEW 1245 members stepped up to offer the gift of life in Redding and Chico, part of a critical blood drive hosted by BloodSource.

Among the IBEW members assisting the blood drive were, from left, Business Rep. Sam Glero, Neil Cutright, Jamie Freeze, Larry Torres, and Eddie Arellano.

“We co-sponsored the blood drive through the union’s Community Fund and were able to increase the amount of donated blood, mainly through local radio coverage of the event,” said Local 1245 Business Rep. Sam Glero. “Donations were increased by 50% for a total of 405 donations.”

Local 1245 members from the United States Bureau of Reclamation, Western Area Power Administration, and City of Redding were on hand to offer assistance.
