🌟 Exciting News! 🌟 Today at Nebraska Community Blood Bank, we launched our new awareness and acquisition campaign: "Good Karma by the Pint"! 🩸✨    This initiative targets individuals aged 25-54, encouraging them to embrace the idea that good deeds bring positive karma—and donating blood can give you good karma by the pint. 💫     Every pint of blood donated can save up to three lives – what better way to earn some good karma? 💖 Join us in spreading the word and making a positive impact, one pint at a time.      A special thank you to our creative and media agency partner Markham Yard. And thank you to the talented teams at ROOF Studio and Tonal Chaos Trailers | Music + Sound Design for bringing our vision and little world of characters to life with the catchiest earworm.     #GoodKarmaByThePint #BloodDonation #NYBloodCenter #GiveBlood #SaveLives #GoodDeeds #CommunitySupport #GoodKarma #Marketing #MarketingCampaign

We're thrilled to share the success of NYBCe at the Association of Donor Relations Professionals Conference last week! Highlights included Director of Public Relations Chelsey Smith's impactful presentation "Breaking Through the White Noise: How Community Leaders Can Amplify Our Voice." The presentation focused on the crucial role of community leaders in amplifying NYBCe's mission and voice. Key insights from last year, such as donor engagement strategies and innovations in donor transport, were revisited and expanded upon. Discussions on understanding personality types for effective management and the impact of our Spanish Language Focused Pilot Program were especially enlightening. The combination of informative sessions, engaging activities, and strategic discussions contributed to the conference's overall success, leaving attendees motivated and well-prepared for the year ahead. Thank you to the senior leadership team for allowing so many NYBCe team members to gather for this incredible event! #ADRPConference #BloodIndustryLeaders #ADRP #ADRP20years #donorrelations
