JW MARRIOTT LAS VEGAS AND RAMPART CASINO CELEBRATE THE AMERICAN SPIRIT WITH A HOLIDAY BLOOD DRIVE AND BECOMES THE FIRST PROPERTY TO HOST A DRIVE SINCE EARLY MARCH
WHAT:
JW Marriott Resort Las Vegas and Rampart Casino step up and become the first casino property to host a blood drive since early March when the stay-at-home orders were initiated to slow the spread of COVID-19. Historically, Independence Day week is the lowest week for blood donations in the summer. Locals who are able to donate blood are urged to use the American spirit and give back to the community in this two-day, holiday blood drive.
Donors are encouraged to keep social distancing recommendations by scheduling an appointment online to reserve a spot by visiting www.bloodhero.com. Enter ‘RAMPART’ as the code and guests are able to sign up for this week’s blood drive as well as other upcoming blood drives.
Vitalant, the largest blood provider in the state of Nevada, is providing COVID-19 antibody testing with every successful donation. Donors will receive the results within two to three weeks. Donors that receive positive results can then choose to aid in the fight against COVID-19 by donating convalescent plasma, the only antibody treatment available for critically ill COVID-19 hospital patients. For those who have recovered from COVID-19, Vitalant will also collect convalescent plasma donations at this blood drive.
