Give Blood. Give Hope. Honor Ethan.
For six years, Ethan Kouri courageously battled Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). Throughout his journey, he depended on countless blood and platelet transfusions. Each donation was more than just blood — it was a gift of time, hope, and precious moments with the people he loved.
Last year, we held our first blood drive with Ethan. Sadly, Ethan passed away this summer. But this November, LifeServe is joining his family and friends to honor his life and continue his legacy.
Ethan’s loved ones know firsthand what a difference blood donors make, and they want to give that same gift of hope to other families fighting battles of their own.
“Because of donors, we had more time with Ethan. Because of you, another family may have more time with someone they love.” - Diana Kouri, Ethan’s mother.
Join us for our #KouriStrong Blood Drive on November 27, 2026, from 11 am to 4 pm at the Sunshine Open Bible Church. Make a blood donation in honor of Ethan and giving a gift that meant so much to him and his family.
