July 28, 2008 - PRLog -- MISSION VIEJO, CA – Land Rover Mission Viejo, in partnership with the Red Cross, announced today that they will sponsor a car wash and blood drive to raise funds for the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. Hosted by the dealership’s G4/TReK Team, the fundraiser will raise local awareness while providing support to the Red Cross. Scheduled for August 2nd, between 10AM and 2PM, the car wash will offer donors a fun and educational experience.  Scheduled for August 5th, between 2PM and 8PM, the blood drive will enable the community to participate in an integral part of the Red Cross mission. Food and refreshments will be provided for both days as well as opportunities to win prizes. Most important, the events provide donors the chance to help others.

“This event will be a first of its kind for the dealership, but definitely not a last. We are committed to extending ourselves to all those who could benefit from such a fundraiser” stated Rich Guzman, Sales Consultant/Event Organizer for Land Rover Mission Viejo.  Funds raised by the dealership will go directly to the Red Cross. Guest speakers and question and answer sessions will take place to emphasize the importance of emergency preparedness and safety.  

All American Red Cross assistance is free, made possible by voluntary donation of time and money from the American people. For those who cannot attend the events, donations are also accepted at Land Rover Mission Viejo during business hours. To donate blood, go to www.givelife.org and enter sponsor code “landrover”. Guzman adds, “Any help is greatly appreciated and we look forward to a growing relationship with both the Red Cross and our local community.”

ABOUT RED CROSS
About 4 million people in the United States need a blood transfusion each year. That’s one person every two seconds, and the overwhelming majority would die without it. There is no substitute for blood; volunteer donors are the only source. Blood is needed for emergencies, surgeries, and for people who have cancer, blood disorders and other illnesses. It is safe to give blood every 56 days.
