On Tuesday, 4/13/10, Affiliated Foot & Ankle Center, LLP teamed up with the Blood Center of New Jersey to host a blood drive at their office located at 4645 Route 9 North in Howell. With a 5-hour window that the blood drive took place, members of Affiliated Foot & Ankle Center, patients and members of the community all took time from their day to support a wonderful cause. The much needed blood collected from this drive will be used to provide for many things such as premature babies in intensive care, trauma victims, cancer patients, burn victims, and so much more. “We feel very strongly about supporting the need for blood and working with the Blood Center of New Jersey, we were able to do just that. I feel grateful to the many people who came to our drive and gave blood. With this being our first on site blood drive, I’m excited to say this is something we are going to continue to do over time, looking to have our next blood drive sometime this fall”, says Dr. Hal Ornstein. Without a date locked in just yet, Affiliated Foot & Ankle Center will be holding another on site drive in the fall and asks all those in the community to donate if at all possible. If you would like to inquire to support the upcoming drive in the fall of 2010, whether it be by donating or helping to spread the word, you can email Affiliated Foot & Ankle Center, LLP at wecare@footdoctorsnj.com.
