TGulf Coast Regional Blood Center highlighted the success of its growing Group Program with “A Celebration of Life” luncheon and awards ceremony. Blood drive groups that chose to Commit for Life by hosting at least one blood drive per quarter and collecting at least 100 donations in 2005 were each honored with a “Path for Success” Award. Mike Romano, whose 7-year-old son has benefited from blood donations during his treatment for leukemia, shared his personal testimony and gratitude with the crowd. The main event was the presentation of special category awards for groups and chairpersons that have gone above and beyond to achieve outstanding results. Congratulations to all these outstanding groups and all the Path for Success Award winners. Your contributions have truly saved countless lives.
