Happy Thanksgiving! We have a favorite episode to share in honor of this day of gratitude — and Bloodworks 101 winning two 2025 Anthem Awards. When the Tualatin City Council met during National Blood Donor Month, an official proclamation was read, honoring Bloodworks Northwest. But little did those attending the meeting know, this official proclamation hit Councilor Maria Reyes hard. As she told Bloodworks 101 producer John Yeager, that's because this proclamation took Maria back to the worst day of her life but also to the ninety people who were there for her when that life hung in the balance.
