established U.S. Oil Holdings, LLC. Russell Scaramella
oversees daily fuel-product distribution operations
and manages charitable initiatives, like hosting
mobile blood drives for the American Red Cross.
For more than 50 years, the American Red Cross has
played an integral role in collecting blood donations
that reduce supply shortages. The organization
obtains more than 6 million units from the generosity
of the public each year, which is then used to
respond to over 70,000 disasters.

3.  This achievement is made possible with the
generosity of partner organizations that host in excess
of 200,000 blood drives annually.
Organizations looking to spread goodwill and give
the gift of life can do so by hosting a blood drive. A
host is responsible for providing a suitable location,
recruiting donors, and scheduling blood donation
appointments. To ensure success, the Red Cross
encourages hosts to set up a committee that leads
marketing initiatives for their site. The committee
makes sure advanced notice about the blood drive
date is given and organizes volunteers to assist the
day of the event.

4.  The Red Cross provides support, such as tips
for recruitment and determining the
number of donors to accommodate.
Professionals transport and set up all
necessary equipment and supplies. They
are also tasked with properly screening
donors and executing procedures for safe
blood withdrawals. Upon completion, the
Red Cross blood drive team collects their
belongings, leaving the space as it stood
upon arrival.
