Springs Magnolia Student Center is holding its 4th annual Blood Drive on February 18, reported Site Facilitator Susie Carpenter. According to the Red Cross, blood supplies are at a 10-year low, with a particular shortage of universal donor type-O blood. Students age 16+ are eligible to donate; younger students are encouraged to recruit their parents to be donors.
The blood will be drawn at the school site. Previous Magnolia blood drives have contributed as much as 50 units of blood. Participants are welcome to sign up and participate in the Magnolia drive, or visit www.redcrossblood.org to find a site near you.
