Current Goal

My mission is to accompany a Geocaching blood donor when she/he donates whole blood or apheresis at an American Red Cross Donor Center. I would like to accompany 2 donors in each of the 50 United States.
In my accompanying green Geocaching micro container is a list of all 50 states (x2. Except Wisconsin, which has 3. My owner took me on my first donor trip and would still like 2 others in Wisconsin to donate.). Please punch a hole in the box next to the state where you took me along to your blood donation before dropping me in a new cache. Please note the city where you gave your blood donation in your log here. Thanks for your donation!
If I have not been to 2 donations in the state in which I currently reside, please send me on my way in the same state.
If you are not a blood donor, but would like to help me on my journey, thanks for your help! Please do not move me to another state until I have been to 2 blood donations in the state in which I currently reside.

About This Item

IMG_1046.JPG

The travel bug consists of the dog tag, an American Red Cross GIVEBLOOD wristband, a green Geocaching micro container with the states list, and a tag outlining the bug's mission. It is an a ziplock bag for ease of travel, and will probably only fit in regular (minimum) sized caches.

Grabbed this one today, won't be able to donate with my blood pressure like it is right now, but I'll get it moved along soon. It hasn't been punched in either Louisiana or Mississippi so I will drop it in one or the other.

Picked up this TB today. Nice idea. I can't give blood right now because of my foreign travel history, but maybe I will try to encourage another.

Grabbed this one to take back to FL for the next time I donate blood. Didn't notice until later in the day, however, that it had already been punched twice for FL and none at all yet for AL; so I deposited it into the No Time To Kill Cache & TB Resort. Hope someone gets those punches for AL soon!
