5th Annual Pam Bedard Honor Blood Drive
May 3rd, 2023 10:00am-3:00pm
So special to be able to honor Pamela Mecham Bedard with this annual blood drive. This was her wish and some pretty amazing friends, colleagues and complete strangers continue to make it come true. All together, we’ve collected 249 donations, helping to save 587 lives touched by the blood components derived from those blood donations! We all miss her every day. Special thanks to Vitalant - Northern Nevada and Atlantis Casino Resort and Spa for helping us continue her wish.
Please sign up for Wednesday’s blood drive we are putting on and hope to see you there! Nothing would make her happier to continue her wish of blood donation.
