Free $10 to Publix! (READ!!!)

Hey all you Florida folk... miss me? I miss FL.

I have gotten a few emails and facebook notes that you got a flier for a $10 Gift Card to Publix when you donate blood.

GREAT news!! You can donate blood, get that card and save the life of a dear friend's son!!!

Von Fusco and another boy were hit by a car when they got off a Lynx bus in Orlando, Monday. (story here)

I dont know who the other young man was, they didnt know each other, but now the families are praying together. Von has 2 broken legs, 2 broken wrists, injuries to his liver and his skull was injured. He had surgery to remove skull fragments from his brain and then Wednesday morning they were going to put rods in his legs and try to fix those too. But he had lost too much blood to do that surgery... just yet.

Von NEEDS your blood (A+, A-, O+, O-)

If you live ANYWHERE in Florida -

‎1) Go to any Florida Blood Center location.
Here's a list: http://floridasbloodcenters.org/fbc-locations/viewLocations.stml

2) Tell them you want to make a "DIRECTED DONATION" or "DESIGNATED DONATION," and give them Von's full name (Von Michael Fusco) or account number, 1980699.

(You might need both)

3) After you have donated blood, please let us know by posting to Von's FaceBook page. Hopefully, your stepping up will encourage others to do the same.

4) Whether you can give blood or not, please re-post this to your FaceBook page, and here's a Tweet you can send:

My friend needs blood! http://ow.ly/dunui Ask to give "Directed Donation to Von Fusco, #1980699." 17-yr-old Von's a donor himself.

PLEASE DONATE! Leave me a comment if you do donate, heck.. leave a comment that you are saying a prayer for this young man!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Heather
