    The Power of Giving

    THE POWER OF GIVING 2010 Annual Report HARNESSING HEMOGLOBIN CHRISTOPHER CHUN HEMOGLOBIN HERO Blood. It doesnʼt just help us to live our lives, but helps to give life to others. When itʼs needed, Hemoglobin Hero and donors like Christopher Chun come to the rescue! Hemoglobin Heroʼs iron-rich, oxygen-carrying protein is present in the red blood cells of donors like Christopher, who started giving blood in 1980 at his company drive. It wasnʼt until his mother became ill in 1990 that he made blood donation a lifesaving habit. “I saw blood in real terms, and I was inspired to give more often,” says the century donor with characteristic enthusiasm . “Now, giving blood is part of my routine. You donʼt have to be Superman to save a life!” PRESIDENT & CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE At Blood Bank of Hawaii, we need not look far to find heroes. We see them every day during a visit to our donor room, or to a Lifesaver Club, school or community drive. They represent all ages, ethnicities and walks of life. They roll up their sleeves and quietly engage in one of life’s most altruistic services – giving the gift of life. We are proud to know these extraordinary heroes, and to serve as the critical link between the donors and Hawaii’s hospitals. As new treatments and procedures help save more patients and improve the quality of their lives, the need for blood is more vital than ever. Hawaii’s volunteer blood donors enable the use of new therapies and technologies, and make recovery a reality for countless people.

    When Their Playing Days Were Over Lss 1323 (26:46) First Air Date: 11/24/2020

    TITLE: WHEN THEIR PLAYING DAYS WERE OVER LSS 1323 (26:46) FIRST AIR DATE: 11/24/2020 I became much more comfortable in the classroom, and I began to get a little bit tired of football. I don’t think I succeeded there in the—on the football field as much as I would have liked to. I succeeded, it paid, for school, and all of those things. But there was a sense—there was still a sense of—of—incompleteness. Life is a challenge, but you accept the challenges for what it is, and how it’s presented to you. How you encounter and how you handle that, uh … you know, it’s all up to the individual. For me, athletics is definitely my success in my career. And I think it’s just there are so many things; you learn, you—you take risks, um, you fail but you get right back up. You know, there’s challenges to be had, there’s discipline, there’s um, others to be considered on the team, but each person has to do their responsibility in order to make the organization work. I enjoyed uh, the—the teaching and the coaching. I’m walking downtown, and hey, somebody—Coach, how you doing? Yo know. And—and this kid I taught thirty-something years ago, and they don’t forget you. These exceptional athletes all excelled in their sport and later succeeded in the game of life on their own terms. “When Their Playing Days Were Over”, next, on Long Story Short.
