The Chester High National Honors Society collected 30 pints of blood at the Fall Blood Drive on Wednesday, October 26th, in the Colbert Gym.
There were 24 whole blood products and 6 Power Red. There was no exact goal for this year, but we still did great.
The blood drive this year was run by Sophia Durbin and Evelyn Hankins, NHS Sponsors.
Students 16 and older can use the Red Cross website to schedule appointments to donate. Students signed up with NHS members during 5th hour study hall on Monday, October 24th, in Juergens Gym.
Donors were encouraged to follow the guidelines on how to safely give blood. Make sure to get a full night’s rest, stay hydrated, and eat a good meal before and after giving blood.
A big thank you to Sophia Durbin, Evelyn Hankins, NHS members, and those who donated!
