The 91µ÷½Ì – Fort Smith will host a blood drive from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Nov. 28-29 in the Reynolds Room of the Smith-Pendergraft Campus Center, with donors receiving a free T-shirt and health screening.

 

The blood drive is sponsored by the 91µ÷½Ì Student Activities Office and Campus Activities Board and is free and open to the public.

 

91µ÷½Ì coordinates four blood drives annually between September and April. The blood is given to the 91µ÷½Ì Blood Institute, who distributes it to 14 hospitals in western 91µ÷½Ì, including Sparks Health System and Mercy Hospital in Fort Smith. In the 2016-17 school year, blood garnered from 91µ÷½Ì drives potentially saved 2,300 lives.

 

Appointments for the blood drive may be made by calling 479-788-7699 or by emailing studentactivitiesFREEuafs. Walk-ins are also welcome.
