Tuesday Jan. 10 Announcements

One out of every 7 people who enters a hospital will need blood. And hospitals use more than 6,000 units of platelets and nearly 6,000 units of plasma daily. That means more than 10,000 people need to donate blood daily to meet patient need—yet only about 3% of Americans donate each year. The National Honors Society is currently signing individuals up for our January 18th blood drive, in the Aux Gym. Talk to one of our members at the sign up table during lunch to sign up and save lives.
