    Spring Blood Drive

    Hey Eagles, 

     
    We are excited to announce that we are hosting a Blood Drive in collaboration with the New York Blood Center on Tuesday, April 22nd, in the gymnasium. This is a great opportunity to give back to the community while also earning community service hours.
     
    Students who are 17 and older can donate without parental consent, while those who are 16 will need a signed consent form. Donating blood will earn you 2 community service hours. 
     
    If you refer someone who successfully donates, you will receive an additional 2 hours, bringing your total to 4 hours. You can refer someone by filling out the Google form with the link below:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1oiW2PEBExQIWDDJvJuYP9RXpPfUdST__44tebbCOBok/edit
     
    We encourage you to register as soon as possible. If you’re interested in donating, please sign up using the link below: 
     
    Your donation can help save lives, and we appreciate your support in making this event a success!
     
    We hope to see you there,
