Campus Crest announced that through its company-wide and
property-wide blood drive, it partnered with the American Red
Cross, the largest single supplier of blood and blood products
in the United States, and other non-profit, community blood
centers where it owns and operates student housing properties
to donate a total of 574 units of blood. According to the
American Red Cross, one unit of blood can save up to three
lives. As a result, Campus Crest’s donation can potentially
help save up to 1,722 lives through the use of red cells,
platelets and plasma the donated blood provides.
Ted Rollins, co-founder and chief executive officer, and Mike
Hartnett, co-founder and chief investment officer of Campus Crest commented: “This initiative
is a way for our organization and our student residents to join forces and contribute to an
important social cause that saves lives. We are proud to partner with these dedicated suppliers
and we thank everyone who donated blood in support of their service to our nation’s health care
system.”
“We are so grateful for the wonderful partnership with Campus Crest Communities and the staff,
students, and supporters who have given the most important gift of all…the gift of life-saving
blood,” said Bonnie McElveen-Hunter, chairman of the American Red Cross. “The Red Cross
relies on dedicated community sponsors like Campus Crest to fulfill its lifesaving mission. On
behalf of the entire Red Cross and all of the people who are alive today because of the selfless
donors who took part in this campaign, I want to say a heartfelt thank you.”
The blood drive is part of Campus Crest’s Grove Outreach Team (“GO Team”) service program
that supports various charitable initiatives the company implements at its corporate office and in
the communities in which it owns and operates student housing properties. The GO Team
program provides student tenants and Campus Crest employees with an opportunity to contribute
to social and community causes.
