The Patton College will be hosting a blood drive on Feb. 16 from 11 a.m. – 5 p.m. in the Curriculum and Technology Center: McCracken Hall, room 215. So far only 19 people have signed up, and the College’s goal is 30. To make an appointment, call 1-800-RED-CROSS. Please pass this information along to your students.

When you donate, you will be entered into a contest to win free groceries from Kroger for a year!

Please see the message below from the American Red Cross:

Subject:  The American Red Cross needs you now. Be a part of “Recovery 2011”!

You can help the Red Cross by giving blood now to help the blood supply recover!

With this latest round of severe winter storms, the Red Cross has been unable to collect blood in certain parts of the country, including much of Ohio, and has been forced to cancel more than 750 blood drives and 28,000 scheduled blood donations since January 1.   As a result, blood donations are the lowest we have seen in a decade.

At any given moment patients rely on life-saving blood products. The need is constant - even in emergency situations such as severe weather.  The quickest help will come from local blood donors like you, who are able to give now!

The Red Cross urges you to schedule an appointment to give blood now.

Make your date to help save a life.  Please contact 1 800 RED CROSS today to schedule an appointment to donate at The Patton College of Education and Human Services blood drive on Wednesday, February 16thth from 11-5 in McCracken CTC 215.

For more information about blood donation visit redcrossblood.org.
