Layne Marshal

Representing British Columbia and Yukon

Layne is a recognized member of the Campbell River community, who does a stellar job of organizing donation events and training other volunteers. He sets up booths in the community to promote blood donation and recruit donors, ensuring that enough donors are ready on donation day.

Ever resourceful and always friendly, Layne’s hard work is just one of the reasons that blood collection does so well in Campbell River. People respond to him. He is just as comfortable speaking to high school students as he is to government employees or local business owners. As a dedicated volunteer and a longtime donor, his position is that no collection event should see an empty donor bed—a position that he expressed earlier this year in a letter to the editor of The Times Colonist in Victoria, Vancouver Island’s major newspaper
