BL Harbert's Nashville Office Hosts Annual Blood Drive
Last week, our Nashville office sponsored the annual Williamson County Battle of the Badges Blood Drive.
The Brentwood Police, Fire & Rescue Departments, the Williamson County Sheriff’s Office, and the Nolensville Fire and Rescue Departments all participated in the event.
The Brentwood Battle of the Badges started when the Brentwood Assistant Fire Chief, David Windrow was diagnosed with Blood Cancer. He endured multiple blood transfusions a week, chemo treatments, blood work, IVs, etc. for over a year and a half. The Brentwood First Responder Community wanted to help in a way that would make a difference to not only their chief but also the community they serve, so the battle was born! Whether you come out to give for the men and women in red or the men and women in blue, these people are all there for one reason, saving lives through the gift of blood.
