World Blood Donation Day with Josie and Furious!

Posted by admin on March 13th, 2010 and filed under donation | 25 Comments »

Because it’s world blood donation day I figured I should show you the footage we shot when we went to donate blood in January.
It’s something Dean and I do every three months and Natalie from the communitychannel wanted to do a video about it (in relation to this campaign that would start there in February) and she had asked Dean to shoot it… Unfortunately, it kept being delayed because of the fire victims in Victoria, the blood donation campaign in Sydney was delayed, as they were flooded with people who wanted to help and they decided to try and help out instead of going through with the campaign…

Long story short: Nat said I could go ahead and post it and didn’t have to wait for her posting it first, so you guys get the scoop! :)
(… from January…)

Hope you like it!
Don’t forget to leave a comment and tell me what you think about donating blood!
