Give A Little (Blood) Get A Lot

The Blood Center of Wisconsin has two great promos going on right now in an effort to increase blood donations. Both of them include getting in free to an event - Wisconsin State Fair or a Brewer's game.

State Fair Promo

If you donate blood at one of our donor centers now through August 11, you’ll give the gift of life to up to three people. And as a special thank you for donating during this time of high need, you’ll score a free one-day admission to the State Fair — one of the most family-friendly and affordable entertainment experiences of Wisconsin’s summer season.
Call 1-877-BE-A-HERO (1-877-232-4376) or 1-414-937-6199 to make an appointment. Be sure to mention "Summer" to get your free ticket.

Or make an appointment online at one of their donor centers. Type "Summer" in the comment box on the confirmation page during your online registration.

In addition to the Wisconsin State Fair ticket, you'll also receive an extra 200 recognition points in our Giving for Life program for your summer donation. It's another way to thank you for your life-saving contribution. If you have questions, or would like more information about the Giving for Life program, call 1-877-BE-A-HERO (1-877-232-4376) or 414-937-6199.

Big League Blood Drive

In baseball, you have to be a closer to get a save. But most of us can get a save without ever pitching a ball – by giving blood at the 11th Annual Big League Blood Drive!  Join us Tuesday, August 28 & Thursday, August 30 as we partner with the Crew to save lives in our community.

As a thank you, all attempting donors will receive a voucher for a pair of tickets to a game later this season!  Donors can choose from:

  • Tuesday, Sept. 11 vs Atlanta

  • Monday, Oct. 1 vs. San Diego

Tuesday, August 28

7 a.m. - 7 p.m. Miller Park 1 Brewers Way Milwaukee, WI

Thursday, August 309 a.m. - 2 p.m. Location TBD

• Free parking
• Childcare provided

Call 1-877-BE-A-HERO (1-877-232-4376) or 1-414-937-6199 to make an appointment or make an appointment online.

Do We Even Understand What A Billionaire Is?

In today's world, we marvel at billionaires, yet very few actually understand what it means. I know its a ridiculous number we cannot fathom, but the more I looked into it, the more it shocked me how much these people really are worth.  Among the general populace, making 'six-figures' or $100,000 is a benchmark of success and wealth. Millionaires are truly wealthy. But what is often misunderstood is how exponentially large adding another, let alone 3, or 6 a number becomes.  The wealthiest aren't just billionaires either, they are hundred billionaires. Elon Musk is worth 265 billion. That is 265 with 9 zeroes after it. 265,000,000,000. It would take someone making six-figures 2,650,000 years to amass that wealth with no expenses. 2.65 MILLION years. To reach Jeff Bezos' wealth would only take them 1.77 million years. Even someone who makes a million dollars a year (which is wealthier than a millionaire which is just a net worth not annual salary delineation) would ...

DEI Creates Opportunities, Doesn't Lower Requirements

Companies have been being attacked recently for DEI initiatives, such as boycotting, to force them to undo those efforts. These attacks are typically dog whistle coding to cover up discrimination against minorities including women and people of color. The narrative is typically that hiring standards are lowered to include a wider range of employees and that it is a form of reverse discrimination - disadvantaging one group (people that are one or more of white, male, and cisgender). But not only is this not the case, in fact, DEI initiatives are proven to strengthen companies' performance across many metrics - even financially. Someone recently brought up lowering standard for airline pilots as proof that DEI is a radical far left practice that supposedly in this case makes pilots less qualified and flying more dangerous in order to fulfill DEI quotas. A similar case has been made recently regarding the Secret Service and issues with at least one high-profile recent event that is - ...
