The South Windsor High School HOPE Club is sponsoring a fall blood drive with the American Red Cross on Tuesday, November 1st, 2022 from 7:25 am- 12:45pm.
An estimated 38 percent of Americans are eligible to give blood or platelets, but of those, less than 10 percent actually donate each year. If you are healthy and eligible, please come out to donate. Most donations take about an hour, so book your appointment, roll up your sleeve and become a part of the lifesaving mission of the Red Cross. You must be at least 16 years of age to donate blood. 16 year olds must have the Parental Consent form completed: Parental-Consent-Blood-Donation.pdf.  Sign up on the Red Cross website using code: swhs20, scan the QR code on the flyer, or click here
