Students Organize Blood Drive on Sunday, February 12

Williston’s Community Service Club needs your help. Every year this student organization joins forces with the American Red Cross to sponsor blood drives on campus. On Sunday, February 12 Williston will host a drive from 10:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. in the Athletic Center. Student leaders have asked for support from the parent community. Please consider giving blood, and encourage your friends and family members to join you. All eligible donors are welcome to attend the blood drive and appointments can be made online.
