Shop. Dine. Save Lives: Galleria at Crystal Run Hosts Blood Drive with New York Blood Center

Published: 03/30/2021

Middletown, NY:  New York Blood Center (NYBC), one of the largest independent, community-based blood centers in the world, will host a blood drive on Thursday, April 1 at The Galleria at Crystal Run to help meet an unprecedented need for blood donations in the region and throughout the country. The NYBC will be located on Level Two across from the food court making it easier for shoppers to conveniently give the gift of life while shopping. Guests are encouraged to make an appointment online  or by calling 800-933-2566.

 

  • WHERE:Level Two across from the Food Court, 1 Galleria Drive, Middletown, NY 10940
  • WHEN: Thursday, April 1 from 11AM-5PM
  • WHO:Blood Donors, Volunteers, and New York Blood Center Representatives
  • WHY:It only takes one hour to donate, and a single donation can save multiple lives. Roughly one in seven hospital admissions require a blood transfusion. Those in need include cancer patients, accident, burn, or trauma victims, newborn babies and their mothers, transplant recipients, surgery patients, chronically transfused patients suffering from sickle cell disease or thalassemia, and many more.

 

“With thousands of New Yorkers getting vaccinated each day, we are thrilled to watch our state recover from this catastrophic year,” said Andrea Cefarelli, Senior Executive Director at New York Blood Center. “As New York bounces back in strides this spring, we need everyone to make an appointment and donate blood to help save lives. While the end of the pandemic is near, our struggle to fight for those in need continues.”

 

“The Galleria at Crystal Run is proud to continue their ongoing partnership with the New York Blood Center to help our local community members during this time of need,” said Eric Price, General Manager at Galleria at Crystal Run. “Thank you to everyone who has made an appointment for the upcoming Blood Drive.”

 

The NYBC is taking extra precautions to help prevent the person-to-person spread of COVID-19. As always, guests are not eligible to donate if they are experiencing a cold, sore throat, respiratory infection, or flu-like symptoms. Additional information on donor eligibility and COVID-19 precautions are available here. As a reminder, Galleria at Crystal Run is taking necessary steps to ensure the safety of guests and employees by following guidelines issued by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), New York State and Orange County. Masks and social distancing continue to be required to enter the property and guests are required to follow the center’s Healthy Shopper Guidelines.
