Published: Thursday, March 14, 2013 12:48 PM CDT
On Saturday and Sunday, March 16 and 17, Vista Ridge Mall will host a blood drive for Carter BloodCare. The drive is part of Carter’s Great Partners reward system, where individuals earn points for donations and are able to redeem points for a variety of rewards. Each donor also receives a pair of movie tickets.


Everyone who donates on March 16 or 17 will be automatically registered as a Great Partner and will begin acquiring points for donation. The points can be redeemed for Great Rewards, which can be accessed at www.carterbloodcare.org .

The blood drives will be from 12 to 6 p.m. both days. Donor registration will take place on the lower level in Center Court and the Carter BloodCare donation station will be on the lower level near Macy’s.

Potential blood donors can volunteer beginning at age 16 with a parent’s consent, and 17-year-olds can give independently. There is no upper age limit for giving. All donors must weigh at least 110 pounds, be in good general health and present a photo ID. Donors are advised to eat a nutritious meal and drink plenty of water before giving blood. For information about donor eligibility or to make an appointment, call Carter BloodCare at 1-800-366-2834 or visit carterbloodcare.org.

Vista Ridge Mall features over 135 specialty shops and eateries including Macy's, Dillard's, jcpenney, Sears and Cinemark. The shopping center is conveniently located at I-35E and the Sam Rayburn Tollway in Lewisville, Texas. For information, visit www.vistaridgemall.com or call 972-315-3641.
