UC DAVIS: OFFICE OF THE CHANCELLOR August 8, 2006 DEANS, DIRECTORS, DEPARTMENT CHAIRS, AND ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICERS Re: ASUCD-Davis Community Blood Drive Please consider donating blood during the upcoming blood drive on Wednesday and Thursday, August 23 and 24, 2006, from 10:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. You can donate blood at the Bloodmobiles on the Quad or in the ARC Ballroom. As a special thank you, everyone who donates will receive a coupon for a pint of ice cream at any participating Northern California Baskin-Robbins store. BloodSource is a group of medical professionals who, with the gift of blood from donors, serve every hospital in the area and help advance the science of blood-related medicine worldwide. BloodSource must collect an average of 700 units of blood a day. Half of the blood supply comes from donors who visit donor centers and half comes from donors who sign up for mobile blood drives sponsored by their local community, place of worship or employer. Departmental release time is appropriate for staff wishing to donate. To help alleviate waiting times, there will be a special section for faculty and staff. To donate blood, you must be at least 17 years old (16 with parental consent), weigh 110 pounds or more, and be in generally good health. We ask that you do not donate blood if you have had cold or flu symptoms within the 48 hours prior to donating. Please eat and drink plenty of fluids before donating blood and bring picture identification for registration purposes. All staff, faculty, students, and alumni are members of the ASUCD- Davis community blood program, which provides members and their families with 100 percent coverage for blood and blood costs. Thank you for your continued support in promoting and participating in this event and for your ongoing concern about healthcare in our community. For further information, please call Angela Tarricone at (916) 376-6007 or angela.tarricone@bloodsource.org. Larry N. Vanderhoef Chancellor 06-082
