PhoneTree for Blood Drives
Using PhoneTree for blood drives is an easy and effective way spread the word about an upcoming bloodmobile, or to offer a personalized method of informing volunteers that their services are needed and appreciated. With PhoneTree, your volunteers can be helping out in many other ways besides tediously operating the phones. PhoneTree is a proven, effective tool for boosting blood drive and bloodmobile attendance, and can help your chapter reach — or even exceed your group's goals on a regular basis.
"Now that we're
using a PhoneTree system, we aren't nearly as dependent on volunteers for
recruitment, and the calls take much less time
than they used to. And I love the fact that the PhoneTree system is so
reliable — I
know our calls will be made correctly and accurately. PhoneTree has made
it so much easier for us to keep a steady stream of donors coming in the
door. Honestly, I don't know how we ever managed before we got a PhoneTree
system!"

"
Yesterday we had 84 people try to give blood on a goal
of 70 — this is due to PhoneTree! Before we started using a PhoneTree
system, our goal was only 40 pints per event, now we have raised
all our bimonthly drive goals to 60. We now have several hundred people
on the PhoneTree list. "
