Roswell Rotary Blood Drive at Coastal Bar & Grill - July 17th


Why do we so urgently require blood donations?  The story your about to read doesn’t just tell you why, it also demonstrates the love and ultimate selflessness of one of our own:

In 2020, Senator & Rotarian John Albers faced a devastating challenge when his son, Will, was diagnosed with kidney failure. The diagnosis came as a shock, and the path forward seemed daunting. The family was thrust into a world of medical appointments, treatments, and waiting lists, all while grappling with the fear of losing their beloved son. Despite their relentless search, finding a compatible kidney match for Will proved incredibly difficult, leading to months of emotional and physical turmoil.

​Amidst this uncertainty, Senator Albers demonstrated the ultimate act of selflessness and courage. Determined to save his son's life, Senator Albers underwent extensive testing and was found to be a perfect match. On July 21, 2021, at Emory Hospital, he donated his kidney to Will, giving him the ultimate gift—a new lease on life. This act of profound love and sacrifice is a testament to the lengths a parent will go to for their child.

This is a very emotional and uplifting story about a father and a son.  We all know the sacrifices that had to be made, not unlike the sacrifices that are made each and every day when precious blood is needed to support similar lifesaving efforts. Every day, hundreds of people in our community find themselves desperately needing blood. The pint you donate just may be the gift of life that person needs. Please take a few minutes out of your day, or your neighbors, family members or your work associates to offer the gift of life to another person by donating a pint a blood.  When you do that, you feel good about yourself, and you get a "Pint for a Pint". 

Roswell Rotary Blood Drive: Coastal Bar & Grill - Wednesday, July 17th 8:00am - 1:00pm - Sign up through the QR Code above - Sponsored by Coastal Bar & Grill, Variant Brewing, Safe Haven Fitness and Bob Clarkson of Century 21 Connect Realty.
