MEDIC Regional blood Center is rallying its donor base to help The Pat Summitt Foundation in its funding of organizations engaged in patient care, caregiver support, and Alzheimer’s disease clinical research.
Not only was former Lady Vols Coach Pat Summitt a blood donor, she was an advocate for MEDIC and the community blood supply. On countless occasions she worked to promote MEDIC’s mission and motivated her fans to roll up their sleeves.
As a way to say thank you and to recognize Coach Summitt for her accomplishments, MEDIC is asking its blood donors to “Give for Pat”.
From Monday, January 30th through Friday, February 3rd, anyone who donates lifesaving blood at any MEDIC blood drive will be supporting Coach Summitt’s legacy. Thanks in part to Alumni Hall, a $10 donation will be made to The Pat Summitt Foundation for every donor who donates blood. All donors will receive a Free T-Shirt, a Free Appetizer from Texas Roadhouse, a Free Cinnamon Biscuit from Bojangles, and a coupon for the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame!
