LIFELINE Blood Services and Joe Mahan Ford once again partnered to help blood collections during the challenging summer months, and this time the summer promotion was for a 2022 Ford Bronco Sport!
“Almost 7,200 donors took the time to donate and help us impact the lives of patients in West Tennessee during our 6th Annual Car Giveaway. We are excited to announce that Ms. Dawn Zificsak from Milan,TN is the winner of the Ford Bronco Sport, generously donated by Joe Mahan Ford! She is excited to win this awesome vehicle!” shares Melinda Reid, Marketing Manager for LIFELINE Blood Services.
Donors, 18 years and up, were entered into the 6th Annual Car Giveway each time they donated during Memorial Day to Labor Day. Whether it was donating at a blood drive or in Jackson or Dyersburg at LIFELINE’s Centers, their name went into the drawing for a chance to win.
“Donating blood makes me feel proud that I am giving back to the community. I am thankful that I can help others who are in need of life saving services provided by LIFELINE,” shared Ms. Zificsak.
LIFELINE wishes to express gratitude for each donor who took the time to be a lifesaver this summer. In addition, we are thankful to Joe Mahan Ford for making a difference and impacting our communities in West TN.
