Last week, I wrote about how Delta employees— “Force for Global Good”—were answering the call to community service. Now there’s more evidence of the commitment of Delta’s people.

With the fiscal year for the American Red Cross ending June 30, it is now official: Delta Air Lines employees have once again given Delta the honor of being the largest corporate donor of blood in the Southeast. Delta employees gave 3,559 pints of blood last year, beating our goal of 3,122 pints.

“We are extremely proud of our success, giving special kudos to Technical Operations who alone exceeded their goal by 256 pints,” said Scarlet Pressley-Brown, director-External Affairs and Community Relations.

Contact your local American Red Cross to find out how you can join Delta in giving the gift of life. And if you can’t give blood, give them your SkyMiles!
