Congratulations to the lucky Winter Getaway winner, blood donor Sue Mundt of Lincoln! Selected in a random drawing of eligible blood donors who presented to donate in December, Sue won the three night getaway for two at a Hyatt Place of her choice. Although she’s not sure yet where she’ll be going—she is certain it will be a trip to remember!

As a loyal blood donor with Nebraska Community Blood Bank, Sue makes giving blood a part of her routine. “It is something I can do for the community without an expectation of anything in return,” Sue said. “It is just a GREAT feeling. The need is huge but I know the number of donors is not. So I just keep giving.”

Maintaining a stable blood supply can be especially difficult during the holidays, and during winter weather, but the Nebraska Community Blood Bank would like to thank everyone who stepped up to give. Each donor helps to ensure that the patients in our local hospitals have the blood they need to survive. The need for blood is constant; please consider donating today. All types are needed, especially O negative (O-) and O positive (O+).
