We are excited to share that, together with iHeartMedia, Community Blood Bank will be hosting Bob-a-thon, a radiothon to encourage blood donation and raise funds in support of our blood collection efforts across the region.
During Bob-a-thon, iHeartMedia will help amplify our mission by sharing stories, educating listeners about the ongoing need for blood, and encouraging community support through on-air fundraising and an on-site blood drive held at the Boston Store. This partnership allows us to reach thousands of people throughout the region and shine a spotlight on the lifesaving impact of blood donation.
Less than 2% of our local community donates blood each year, even though more than 60% of the population is eligible. Without intervention, the continued decline in blood donors could become a public safety issue. Summer months are historically challenging for blood collection which makes the success of this radiothon more critical than ever.
Funds raised through the iHeartMedia Radiothon will go towards our marketing and outreach efforts to help us reach more donors throughout the community. For more information, click here.
