American Red Cross Blood Drive
In Honor of Benjamin Vince Nathaniel
The Story
We are honored to support the American Red Cross Blood Drive in memory of our beloved son and grandson, Benjamin Vince Nathaniel Pitt, affectionately known as Vinnie or Sugar Bear. Diagnosed with Transposition of the Great Arteries (TGA) at 20 weeks and born prematurely at just under 25 weeks, Vinnie required daily blood transfusions during his 40 days with us. His strength left an indelible mark on his mother and all who knew him, inspiring a mission to serve the community and honor his life in a meaningful way. Vinnie taught us that life is precious and every moment together is a gift.

The Mission
We invite you to join us in supporting these drives, whether by donating, volunteering, or spreading the word. We honor Vinnie through this work because those blood donations sustained his life, and we are committed to building a community that understands and champions the vital importance of giving blood.
