SGA Blood Drive
For patients in need, donated blood can change everything. Blood products are used to help people – our friends, family, neighbors and coworkers – as they treat cancer, chronic diseases and traumatic injuries. And they are only possible with the help of volunteer blood donors.
Student Government Association is hosting their annual blood drive on Feb. 27. All students, faculty, administration and staff are invited to register and participate! This is an especially important time to donate because of the shortage around the country.
Appointments are available from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Appointments are preferred, but walk-ins are welcome. Please make sure to bring a photo ID or passport for identification.
