March is a lucky month! Vitalant (formerly United Blood Services) joins Doc Burnstein’s Ice Cream Lab at the Arroyo Grande Fire Station, home of our local, heroic first responders. Vitalant will accepting blood on Monday, March 11 from 1 – 6 p.m. at the Arroyo Grande Fire Station, 140 Traffic Way. For every pint of blood donated, Doc Burnstein’s will give a donor a voucher for a hand packed pint of Doc Burnstein’s premium ice cream as a thank you for donating. It’s like finding a pint of delicious ice cream at the end of the rainbow!
Launched in 2003, Doc Burnstein’s monthly Blood Drives attract hundreds of donors each year. Doc’s Founder, Greg Steinberger says, “When you consider that each donation can save three lives, the 9,000 donations at Doc Burnstein’s drives makes for a staggering impact.”
Be a part of this monumental event!
