Paradise Chevrolet Cadillac to Host Blood Drive Supporting Childhood Cancer Patients<br />
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1<br />
Paradise Chevrolet Cadillac will be<br />
hosting a blood drive in support of Cole<br />
Haar. 10-year-old Cole Haar was diagnosed<br />
with leukemia two years ago.<br />
Now, he and other children fighting for<br />
their lives at local hospitals desperately<br />
need blood and platelet donations. Due<br />
to the ongoing critical blood shortage,<br />
sometimes childhood cancer patients<br />
must wait days for transfusions - but<br />
they can’t wait.<br />
These children need multiple<br />
transfusions weekly during their chemo<br />
treatment. Cole has a personal goal of<br />
collecting at least 100 pints of blood<br />
during his blood drives, so kids like<br />
him are not waiting in pain for blood.<br />
Paradise Chevrolet Cadillac is calling<br />
on the community to help Cole reach<br />
his goal and save lives.<br />
Terry Gilmore, President of Paradise<br />
Chevrolet Cadillac, has an<br />
important motto, “If you see a need,<br />
do the deed.” By hosting this blood<br />
drive, it allows the community to<br />
get involved in an actionable way<br />
and make a life-saving difference for<br />
these children and their families. For<br />
30 years, Paradise Chevrolet Cadillac<br />
has positively impacted the valley by<br />
supporting wherever there is a need.<br />
The Life Stream blood drive will take<br />
place on Monday, <strong>May</strong> 23 from Noon to<br />
5:00pm at Paradise Chevrolet Cadillac,<br />
27360 Ynez Road, Temecula. To schedule<br />
your appointment call 1-800-879-<br />
4484 or visit lsblooddrive.org/char and<br />
use replenishment code REPLCHAR at<br />
