Deanna donated for the first time in January and has been consistently donating at our Puyallup Donor Center ever since. She has already donated four times and is halfway to her first gallon award! Special thanks to Joanne and John Meadows, Deanna’s friends and long-time blood donors, for encouraging her to start donating.
Deanna was born and raised in Enumclaw. She “crossed the river” and now lives in Buckley and works in the White River School District Food Services Department. Her daughter is starting her first year at Pierce College, and her son is a sophomore in the White River Schools.
Thank you Deanna for making the decision to donate blood and for your commitment to being a consistent donor!
Pat, a contractor, was raised and currently resides in Lakewood. He began donating with Cascade Regional Blood Services in 1997 has been a frequent donor since. Pat recently surpassed the five gallon milestone, which equals 40 individual donations! He usually donates only on Thursdays; however, when he noticed the flyers for our summer iDonate promotion, he made a special trip and donated this past Monday. Pat enjoys golfing and camping with friends and family. He said he looks forward to using the iPod when he goes for walks.
Thank you Pat for supporting your community blood center as a committed blood donor, especially during these summer months when it becomes more challenging to maintain adequate inventory levels.
Congratulations Cara!
Congratulations to our 8th iDonate iPod winner, Cara! Cara has been a long-time blood donor, regularly donating at her workplace. She currently works from home as a Medical Records Coder for MultiCare Health Systems. Cara now comes to our CRBS Tacoma Donor Center to donate, which worked out very well for her this summer.
Cara has two grown daughters who were extremely excited to hear that their mom had won an iPod during the summer iDonate promotion. In her free time, Cara is active in fitness classes, walking, and she tries to spend as much time as she can on the water in her kayak.
Thank you Cara for supporting CRBS and the community blood supply!
Congratulations Alyssa!

She began donating two years ago at her high school blood drives and has continued to donate during the summers at our Federal Way Donor Center. Alyssa enjoys wake boarding, having time with her friends and soaking up the sunshine on her family’s boat. Alyssa will be taking a road trip to Montana with her best friend Audrey, the lucky recipient of Alyssa’s old iPod now that she has a brand new one!
