On Friday March 1, The American Red Cross is hosting their second annual blood drive at Rosary Academy for the 2023-2024 school year.
If you are 16 or older, all you need to do in order to donate blood is fill out one form and turn it in. If you are under the age of 16, you can still donate blood; however, you need to get two forms signed by your parents or legal guardian in order to donate blood. All forms can be found in the science rooms. Senior Kylan Castillo says, “This is my second time donating. I love being able to help others who need it!”
If you are donating, make sure you hydrate a lot before and eat a good meal before you donate.
After you have turned in the forms to Mr. Parmar in Room 3, there is a QR code to scan on his flyer in order to make an appointment, or you can go to redcrossblood.org and use code “Rosary.”
Donating can also bring your team Red and Gold points! Whether you are personally donating or if it’s a family member, this act of service can bring your team points, so don’t forget to donate!
