<div>This is a quick reminder about our upcoming Blood Drive, happening August 21st, Friday, in McCarren Park, from 4 to 9:30pm. The <a href="http://www.nybloodcenter.org/index.jsp">New York Blood Center</a> is low on donors this summer, so Jauntsetter and a bunch of other local startups are doing our part to give back. We hope you'll join us! By donating, you'll be saving three lives - and you'll also get lots of free goodies and giveaways - read on to find out more.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>________________________________________</div><div><br /></div><div><b><i>Jauntsetter Blood Drive</i></b></div><div><br /></div><div>On Friday, August 21st at McCarren Park, from 4 to 9:30pm, we're hosting a blood drive with some awesome Brooklyn startups: <a href="http://haydenharnett.com/">Hayden-Harnett</a>, <a href="http://brooklynbased.net/">Brooklyn Based</a> and <a href="http://carrotcreative.com/">Carrot Creative</a>.</div><div><br /></div><div>We're extremely excited to join forces with them to do some good, but we can't run a successful blood drive without your help. In fact, July and August are the slowest months for the <a href="http://www.nybloodcenter.org/index.jsp">New York Blood Center</a>, and they really need our donations. So please <a href="https://drm.nybloodcenter.org/PublicScheduler/GroupWelcome.aspx?Group=64086">click on this link and sign up for a spot</a>.</div><div><br /></div><div>As an added incentive to sign up for one of the early spots, we'll be giving away goodies to our first 75 donors, including jauntsetter totes and some amazing <a href="http://haydenharnett.com/">Hayden-Harnett</a> discounts, as well as <a href="http://www.tawnyong.com/">delicious cupcakes from Tawny Ong</a>, and some <a href="http://www.williamsburger.com/wb/menus/bagel-store-menu/">hearty snacks from The Bagel Store</a>. Even better? The first 25 people who show up for the beginning of the drive (which is usually the slowest) get tokens for the <a href="http://www.vanleeuwenicecream.com/">Van Leeuwen Ice Cream Truck</a> for a free cone! </div><div><br /></div><div>Final details: The blood drive bus will be parked at North 12th and Bedford, and the drive goes from 4 to 9:30pm - giving you plenty of time to give a pint and head out to dinner in the Williamsburg/Greenpoint area.</div><div><br /></div><div><i>Bottom line:</i> <a href="https://drm.nybloodcenter.org/PublicScheduler/GroupWelcome.aspx?Group=64086">Sign up to donate blood on August 21st here!</a></div><div><br /></div>
