St. Gerard parish partners with the American Red Cross and the Bretton Woods Lions Club to host six blood donation drives each year in our parish hall. Those who donate blood are the real givers at these drives, but ministry members greet and initiate the process with donors and provide them a little relaxation and nutrition at the snack table. The ministry also takes responsibility for publicity and unloading
the Red Cross truck and arranging the donation room. The Daughters of St. Anne Circle provide goodies for the donors at the snack table. The need is always great, as is the gratification of donating.
