Hosting Hope — Blood Drive at Quirk Ford Belfast
Belfast Community Health
On October 11, 2023, Quirk Ford Belfast opened its doors to the American Red Cross for a community blood drive — continuing a tradition that has spanned decades across all Quirk Auto Group locations.
Why It Mattered
- • National blood shortages can delay critical surgeries and life-saving treatments
- • Each donation can save up to three lives
- • Only about 3% of eligible Americans donate blood annually — every donor counts
- • Hosting drives at familiar, accessible community locations like Quirk dealerships removes barriers to giving
Quirk's commitment to blood donation goes beyond Belfast. From Portland to Bangor, Augusta to Rockland, our team has been rolling up their sleeves for years — not for headlines, but because it's the right thing to do.
As Maine's family-owned automotive group for over 50 years, we're more than dealerships — we're neighbors. And when our neighbors need blood, we show up.
Every donation at this drive had the potential to save up to three lives — a direct impact on Maine families in their time of greatest need.
