Ever thought about giving blood? Odds are you have, but are yet to actually do it.

A bunch of Atomicans are doing it, and we’d like you to join us. Take a look at the Community Events part of the Atomic forums, there are organised days for most capital cities. Sydney’s just had one, but there’s nothing to stop you organising another one, or simply rocking up to the Red Cross without fuss and just doing it..

It’s the easiest thing to do. It’s normal to be a bit yicky about the whole idea, but it’s easy and painless, and there’s nothing wrong at all with enjoying the feeling of righteous goodness you’ll get afterwards.

The Atomic community has a long and strong history of doing good for those in need. It’s a common bond, and it’s strong. It’s fair to say that the strength of the community’s drive to help others has pulled in people that wouldn’t have helped without a push.

Good people are everywhere, but only a few actually get off their bums and do something good to help others.

Atomic is full of good people, come and get amongst it and give a little of yourself for someone who could use your help.
