WILKES BARRE, PA - February 26, 2008 - In support of the Be Positive
Do Something Positive Day on Saturday March 1, 2008 The American Red
Cross blood services will hold a special blood drive from noon to 5
p.m. This special blood drive will be held at the Genetti´s Best
Western Hotel and Convention Center, 77 East Market Street, Wilkes
Barre PA. The blood drive is being sponsored by HaroldSays as part of
the International Be Positive Do Something Positive Day kick off
celebration on March 1st in Wilkes-Barre PA.
Harold Cameron, The Chief of Helping of HaroldSays, stated, "My life´s
mission and passion is encouraging positive thought and action
everywhere and to everyone in the world." One way that he is doing
that is by promoting the Be Positive Do Something Positive Day on
March 1, 2008. One significant and potentially life saving way to do
something positive is by donating blood. The theme of the blood drive
for The Be Positive Do Something Positive Day is B+! Give Blood! Save
a Life!
The American Red Cross relies on voluntary donations. Not only do
people in hospitals in the Wilkes-Barre PA area depend on receiving
the "Gift of Life", people in hospitals all across our nation depend
on receiving blood. Every two seconds someone needs blood in this
country.
"We encourage current and new donors to donate blood at the American
Red Cross Be Positive Day blood drive," said Tony Ferlenda, Chief
Executive Officer of the Northeastern Pennsylvania Region. "One
donation can save up to three lives."
March is Red Cross Month. In celebration of the Red Cross month all
presenting donors at the Be Positive Day event will automatically be
entered into a drawing to win a tote full of American Red Cross
goodies.
Also at 11 a.m. Mark Hoog, acclaimed children´s author and
motivational speaker will appear at the Barnes & Noble Wilkes-Kings
College Bookstore, 7 South Main Street, Suite 1, in Wilkes Barre, PA.
He will appear at the event to read his book "Your Song" to the
children who attend. He will be available after the book reading to
talk with the children and their families as well as to sign books. A
family of a victim of bullying will be at the bookstore passing out
handmade "positive" message bookmarks and children will be able to
create their own bookmarks as well.
At 1 p.m. Mark will be speaking at The Be Positive Do Something
Positive Day rally at the Genetti´s Best Western Hotel and Convention
Center in the ballroom. The rally is free and is open to the general
public. In his inspirational and potentially life-transforming
presentation, Mark will make those in attendance laugh, he might make
them cry, however, he will most certainly make them think about what
matters most in life.
