Hamilton, OH - Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park and Museum is partnering with the Hoxworth Blood Center for its first blood drive!
Giving blood saves lives! Join us on Sunday, August 16th for a blood drive at Pyramid Hill. The blood drive will take place in Pyramid Hill’s park. Pre-registration for this event is required. Donors will receive FREE admission to the park, as well as one Pyramid Pick ticket which can be used for FREE admission at any of Pyramid Hill’s remaining 2020 events, including:

“I am thrilled to partner with Hoxworth Blood Center for this event," explains Gabi Roach, Pyramid Hill Project Manager. “Hoxworth serves our community and we want to help them in their mission. Hosting this event is incredibly close to my heart, especially as they serve the Liberty Campus of Cincinnati Children's Hospital - where my daughter was treated as a newborn. I will be donating and I encourage others to do the same!"
Did you know donated blood can go toward treating trauma patients, heart surgery patients, cancer patients, transplant patients, burn patients, premature and new babies, anemic patients, and sickle cell patients?
Each day, Hoxworth Blood Centers needs to collect at least 350 units of blood and 60 units of apheresis platelets to meet the needs of patients in the Tri-State area. Once testing and processing is complete, the units are dispersed to over 30 hospitals served by Hoxworth where they are transfused to patients with a variety of medical needs.
“As the steward of the blood supply here in the Tri-State area, we rely not only the time and generosity of volunteer blood donors, but on local organizations who help organize blood drives and recruit donors. We are thrilled that Pyramid Hill is joining our lifesaving ranks with their first ever blood drive, and we cannot thank them enough for the support of our mission!” Cara Nicolas, Associate Director of Public Relations.
When you donate with Hoxworth Blood Center, you are helping patients in need of blood and blood components in our communities! To register as a donor, visit: www.hoxworth.org/groups/pyramidhill.
