October 11 Blood Drives Planned In Bradford & Covington Donate blood to help with the treatment of cancer patients.

Support the Covington Eagles community blood drive Monday, Oct. 11, 1-7 p.m., at 715 E. Broadway Ave., Covington, and the Bradford High School drive on the same date, from 3-7 p.m., at 750 Railroad Ave. Appointments are encouraged. Schedule online at www.donortime.com or call 937-461-3220.

Everyone who registers to donate will receive the “Cancer Fighters are the GOAT” T-shirt honoring October Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Nearly one fourth of the blood supply goes to cancer patients, higher blood component usage than any other disease. Cancer patients need blood because chemotherapy and radiation treatments can damage bone marrow, reducing their red cell and platelet production. Complex surgical procedures for cancer also require transfusions.

The Cancer Fighters T-shirt is the third and final design in the Community Blood Center “Blood Donors are the GOAT” campaign.

CBC is challenging eligible donors to collect all three designs before the campaign ends on October 30.

As we’ve said many times, the Stillwater Valley Advertiser is not a newspaper in the sense most think of a newspaper. The key is in our name – AdVertiSer. This publication relies on paid advertising to generate income for printing/postage costs, staff salaries, and building/equipment maintenance.

However, the Advertiser is pleased to be of service to the community by offering open space – when available – to help our readers share news they feel is of interest to the community, such as engagements, weddings, milestone birthdays and anniversaries, birth announcements, five generation pictures, Vacation Bible Schools, library programs, school and club events, etc.

If an organization, even non-profits like Veterans organizations, charge for a steak, chicken, or fish fry, we can’t offer free advertising to them, as their event competes with area restaurants who do pay for display advertising. Churches also compete with restaurant advertisers when they host Chili and Spaghetti Dinners, etc. The key is in what is done with the funds generated. For example, a church hosting a dinner to raise money for a new organ would be charged to advertise that event. However, if the church is hosting a dinner to benefit a family experiencing a health crisis or who have lost their home in a fire, the Advertiser waives the cost of advertising as our contribution to the effort.

Those wishing to advertise an event that does charge an admittance fee can do so by including that information in our Calendar of Events for just $15 per week.

If you question whether or not your event qualifies for free advertising, feel free to call our office at 937-473-2028, Monday thru Friday, 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. Our helpful staff will be happy to assist you, or will direct your call to Gary Godfrey, president of Arens Corporation.
