The American Red Cross blood drive reaches out to high school kids again
NHS Students handing out food to those who donated
March 15, 2018
Yesterday, the American Red Cross hosted a blood drive in the high school auxiliary gym. Students who had filled out a form and turned it in to the guidance office were able to donate. The local National Honor Society chapter provided support and food to those after they donated.
“With every donation you can save 3 lives.” The blood donated from each student provides a life source to victims of car accidents, leukemia, etc.
Many of the volunteers that work directly with the American Red Cross return to help again. One volunteer helped the organization for many years. “It’s a need in the community and I love working with the people.”

This is definitely for a good cause and I think more kids should do it. I wish I would’ve done it when I had the chance I just didn’t know how’d it work and stuff. But I will do if there’s a next time and I hope I can’t motivate people to do it too

I have to say that this is a good out reach to get kids like me to donate blood and help those in need from accidents or diseases that they couldn’t help but have.
