Antoinette Edwards, our incredible diversity director, shared with me an e-mail that I thought deserved to be seen by a wider audience:

Antoinette,

We met at an event last year. You said you would meet me down at the [blood] donation section and take photos if I came in to donate. Luckily, I lost your card. Amazing what you find when you clean your desk!

But you made me think about blood donations and I have done it twice since then. Last time was this Monday. When I donated at the mobile unit, I found out it was the first time in 10 years.

Just wanted to let you know your razzing worked. Next time I can donate is in May!

Pretty cool, right? If it’s been a while since you’ve donated, go sign up now.
