Have you ever wondered about the doves at Pete Moore Hospice House? There's no better person to tell you about those doves - and the memorial feathers they hold - than Gene Shutt.

Why did we host a blood drive yesterday? Well, January is National Blood Donor Month - but that's hardly the only reason!
🩸Every 2 seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood or platelets.
🩸One unit of blood can save as many as three lives.
🩸29,000 units of red blood cells are needed every day in the U.S.
🩸1 in 7 people entering a hospital need a blood transfusion.

For those reasons - and lots more - Cascade Health employees are proud to give. ❤
