Little Giants Foundation

On July 13, 2024  Gretna Insurance Agency will be hosting  our Little Giants blood drive in honor of our daughter Emily who is turning 21. When she was diagnosed with a rare genetic life limiting disease at the age of  4, we were told me she wouldn’t live longer than 9 years because of her  SIOD. Right now, only 10 children in the U.S. are documented with this rare disease. We are having our annual blood drive because Emily has needed and continues to need blood and we want to help give back. We need your help to spread the word! When the blood drive meets its goals, Nebraska Community Blood Bank will provide money back for each unit of blood collected and it will support our Little Giants Foundation that helps raise money to research answers about SIOD. So, not only will blood donors be saving lives right here in Nebraska, they will also be helping the community.

We need your help to get those donors in the chairs!  We’ve now gotten to the point where we need to ask people to commit to helping saving lives by signing up instead of showing up. This will really help to ensure the blood drive goes smoothly and that people get in that day.
