civic responsibility through game prizes?
Nov. 19th, 2018 03:28 pmThe Red Cross is sort of adorable in its efforts to drum up, I dunno, a sort of community feeling among blood donors? Or to ping that little game-reward button most of us have somewhere in the back of our brains.
To wit, this email I received after my most recent donation:
Dear LIZ,
It is our honor to congratulate you on reaching your 3 gallon milestone. Your 24 lifetime donations have helped make a difference in the lives of many who you may never know.
We are happy to present this digital milestone badge to you as a symbol of your dedication to helping save lives. Share it with pride. Show everyone you’re a #DonorForLife. You've earned it.
If you'd like a pin to wear with pride, we're happy to mail one to you. Simply click the button below within the next 30 days to request your pin.
We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Sincerely,
J. Chris Hrouda
President, Biomedical Services
I don't think I’m going to order it -- I don't have any practical use for a pin -- but I am still kind of irrationally pleased to have reached that milestone and had someone notice. *wry*
