You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give. ~ Khalil Gibran

With one donation, you can save the lives of three people! There is no substitute for blood. It can only come from one place?from a volunteer blood donor. It is essential that we have a steady stream of volunteer blood donors, especially during the summer months. Our next drive is on Saturday, Aug. 23, 7 am-12:30 pm in Atonement Hall. Sign up after each mass on the weekends of Aug. 9-10, 16-17. For your convenience, you can sign up online https://www.inovabloodsaves.org or go to the INOVA Center on Nokes Blvd. For questions and much more information about donating, check out the newly renovated CTR website (http://www.ctrcc.org) under the heading Get Involved.
