Greetings Previous and Future Blood Donors!

Our fourth and last  Blood drive of the year is set for next Tuesday, March 31st from 8:00a.m. - 2:00 p.m.  The Donor Buses will be located behind building 3 - right next to those beautiful brand new Green Houses and overlooking the pond.

The last blood drive held on campus in January was a huge success.  Due to that success the Sarasota Community Blood Bank has decided to send us two buses.  So, we really do not want to disappoint them!  Blood is greatly needed right now, and there is always a shortage of donors.  Please consider donating, ask your friends and family to stop by as well.  Each donor gets a free T-Shirt and the peace of mind that you made a difference.  It is safe and easy to donate and only takes 30-45 minutes.

There will be a sign up table in the cafeteria on Monday during lunch, and there is also a sign up in the Media Center.  Of course, walk ins are welcome - and you do not need to sign up ahead of time to donate.

Find a buddy, and donate together!  Encourage your students to donate and they will often become lifelong donors!
They must be 17 years old and pick up a parent permission slip on Monday.

We need your help - all blood donated stays in Sarasota - for our community!  Thank you for your support!
