Blood and Steel


The World Steel Association has said that steel is a integral part of the circular economy promoting zero waste, reuse of resources and recycling, this in return helps build a sustainable future. Steel also helps people in times of natural disasters; earthquakes, storms, and flooding, and other catastrophes are mitigated by steel productions. Like steal, blood is also 100% renewable. Both blood and steel products can be recycled repeatedly without losing strength. According to the Red Cross just one pint of blood can save up to 3 lives and that every two seconds there is a person needing a blood transfusion...Did you also know that only 38% of the population is eligible to donate blood?! Both steel and blood, although two different topics are both positive life changing resources.

Because March is Red Cross Month, Rykr Steel would like to announce that we will be sponsoring a Red Cross Blood Drive for the Chippewa Valley and surrounding areas on Sunday March 13th from noon to 5pm. Free bottled water and snacks will be provided. The first 25 people to participate in the drive will be given a free coupon booklet for businesses in the Chippewa Valley with up to $300 in savings! So be a part of that 38% and come out to support the community and the people in it.

*If you're unable to make it to any of our drives out here at Rykr Steel, but would still like to volunteer or participate, here are some other locations and dates of local blood drives near by.*

  1. Great posting. It is well written and it offers a free item to get people to donate blood for the cause. The heading is catchy, key words are in the first paragraph and then repeated throughout the blog, the blog gives us information with statistics, and the logos are great. Good job!
