The Lifeline of the North Country and Capital Region: Celebrating Our Recent Community Blood Drives

Nothing beats employees coming together for a great cause. 

There is a unique kind of energy that fills a room when neighbors come together for a common cause. Recently, that energy was felt across the North Country and Capital Region as BHSN hosted two incredibly successful blood drives at our Centers for Wellbeing in Plattsburgh and Queensbury.   

We are thrilled to share that through the collective generosity of our staff and neighbors, a total of 32 units of blood were collected across both events.  

At BHSN, our mission is built on the pillars of Safety, Belonging, and Purpose. There is perhaps no greater way to fulfill that purpose than by providing the literal “gift of life” to those in our community facing their most critical moments.  

From Morrisonville to Queensbury: A Community Effort 

We are still buzzing from the success of our drive at the Morrisonville Clinic. A huge thank you to the staff at the UVM Health Network – CVPH Adirondack Regional Blood Center for their expertise and commitment. They made the experience seamless and rewarding for every donor, ensuring our local hospitals have the vital resources they need right here at home.  

The momentum continued south at our Center for Wellbeing in Queensbury. Partnering with the American Red Cross, we were honored to provide a space for our neighbors to give back in a life-changing way. Every pint collected is proof of the compassion of our staff and the residents of the Capital Region. 

All smiles for our staff donating blood at our Queensbury location.

 Why It Matters 

In our ongoing work, we recognize that health is not just about clinical appointments but about fostering a culture of wellness and mutual support. Whether it was a first-time donor or a regular gallon-club member, seeing our community unite reminds us of the incredible impact we can make when we work together.  

Didn’t Get a Chance to Donate? 

If you missed these events, don’t worry! The need for blood is constant, and our commitment to hosting these drives is just as steady.  

Stay tuned to our social media pages for announcements on our next scheduled drives. We can’t wait to see you there, rolling up your sleeves to support the North Country and Capital Region.
