| Steven Groeger Achieves CBCNJ Milestone! |
Meet Steven Groeger, a very special blood donor. On June 13th Steve made his 200th blood donation, becoming the first blood donor in CBCNJ history to achieve that lofty goal. Quiet and modest, Steve says he donates blood, "Because it helps other people and it's the right thing to do."
Steve made his first donation with us in 1978, and regularly donates platelets with us now about once a month.
…and so does Robert Heaney!
Then on Monday, June 18th Robert Heaney of Newtown, PA came in for his platelet donation appointment first thing in the morning. It was Bob's 200th donation with us, too! Bob's been a regular donor with us since we were located on Bellevue Avenue in Trenton.
