The annual Homecoming Blood Drive is approaching and will run from September 24th-28th. Campus Red Cross Club will join American Red Cross and Nebraska Community Blood Bank in an effort to save the lives of hundreds. On Monday, CASNR on East Campus will join this life saving mission as well. This is the largest Blood Drive in the entire state of Nebraska, and due to hurricane season and forest fires within the country, the demand for blood is much higher than usual.
On Monday, there will be mobile blood banks at East and City campuses. Specifically, at the City Campus Union Plaza from 11 a.m.-4 p.m. (ARC) and East Campus loop from 9 a.m.-3 p.m.(NCBB). From Tuesday through Thursday, indoor blood drives will be held at City Campus, specifically at the Nebraska Union's Centennial Room from 11 a.m.-6 p.m. UNMC College of Nursing and Dental will also be hosting mobile drives on Wednesday and Friday respectively.
With one pint of blood, up to three lives can be saved. Please sign-up online or stop by to donate. Walk-ins are welcome. Donors receive a free t-shirt.
