DALLAS, TX<\/strong> – ClubCorp \u2013 The World Leader in Private Clubs \u2013 announces a new partnership with the American Red Cross and other regional blood donation organizations, hosting member blood drives in over 50 clubs, in 14 states across the country, and the list is growing. The Red Cross needs the help of blood donors to maintain a sufficient blood supply for the weeks and months to come. The efforts are just one of several ways ClubCorp and its members are giving back to their communities during the Coronavirus crisis.<\/p>\n

\u201cServing our communities is one of ClubCorp\u2019s core values and our members are at the heart of our ability to give back,\u201d said David Pillsbury, ClubCorp CEO. \u201cAs community leaders, so many of our members have asked how their clubs can give back and support those in need during this difficult time. We are proud to host these blood drives \u2013 considered an essential community service right now \u2013 and give our members every opportunity to help even as they adhere to stay-at-home mandates. Knowing they are going through their own adversity yet are so concerned about giving back speaks volumes to their character and generosity.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone has the ability to help save a life through the donation of blood,\u201d said Dr. Ram Srinivasan, an Intensive Care Physician and member at Belmont Country Club in Ashburn, Virginia. \u201cDonating blood at this time is safe and very much needed, whether for patients of accidents, cancer or chronic illness.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring this uncertain time, we encourage individuals to keep scheduled blood donation appointments and to make new blood donation appointments for the weeks ahead to ensure a stable supply throughout this pandemic,\u201d said Kamenna Lee, vice president, Biomedical Marketing at the American Red Cross.<\/p>\n
