Earlier this month, Logical Position (LP), a Lake Oswego-based digital marketing agency, collected 14 pints of blood from 22 donors at its first-ever blood drive for the American Red Cross, potentially saving approximately 42 lives.

The blood drive is one of many charitable events LP has organized as a result of its newly-formed ACES (activities, community, education and social events) council. The employee-led council organizes and promotes community events and outreach programs.

“Every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood,” said Allysa Mousourakis, Chairman of the ACES Community Council and Account Manager at LP. “The blood drive provided the ACES council with a way of making an immediate, positive impact on our community.”

This is the ACES Community Council’s third charitable event since its December 2015 beginning. Other events include a clothing drive for the Portland Rescue Mission and a Food Drive for the Oregon Food Bank. The Community Council will be participating in a food packaging event for the Oregon Food Bank later this month.
