Power Up with a Purpose Access Pass
This year, for the first time ever, music fans had the opportunity to purchase front row access to their favorite headlining act on the Generac Power Stage at Summerfest with all proceeds benefiting the American Red Cross of Wisconsin.
The campaign was a success!
Power Up with a Purpose raised $55,000 for the American Red Cross to fund a Promaster 3500 blood services vehicle.
Thank you to Generac, Summerfest, and everyone who purchased tickets or donated to Power Up with a Purpose!
All money raised went towards funding an
American Red Cross ProMaster 3500 Blood Services vehicle.
Our blood services vehicles play a vital role in making sure lifesaving blood is available for patients in need. ProMaster 3500 is a specially outfitted vehicle that transports staff and equipment to blood drives and brings collected blood to processing centers and hospitals.
After more than three years of nonstop blood and equipment transportation, the ProMaster 3500 is tuned up and refitted for disaster relief work. While covering fewer miles in this line of work, the ProMaster 3500 has just as much impact on our community, delivering relief and hope when disaster strikes.
