Lead The Way partnered with Versiti Blood to host a life-saving Blood Donor Drive at the Community Impact Center (CIC). The event was a huge success, with participants from Lead The Way school partners, including enthusiastic youth from Horizon Science Academy, coming together to support this vital cause.
A Day of Giving and Learning
The event took place in Room J at the CIC, where students and community members gathered between 9:00 AM and 2:00 PM to donate blood. Horizon Science Academy students not only participated in the drive but also had an amazing time learning about the importance of blood donation and its life-saving impact. The interactive and educational environment made it a memorable experience for everyone involved.
Versiti Blood staff were on-site to guide donors through the process and answer questions, ensuring a smooth and welcoming experience. The event served as a hands-on opportunity for Lead The Way youth to engage with their community and witness firsthand the power of giving back.
Making a Difference
The Blood Donor Drive highlighted the significant impact of community involvement. Each donation has the potential to save up to three lives, and the contributions from Lead The Way partners and students demonstrated their dedication to making a difference.
“This was such an incredible experience,” shared one Horizon Science Academy student. “I learned so much about how blood donation works and how it helps people. I can’t wait to participate again.”
Looking Ahead
Building on the success of this event, Lead The Way is excited to announce plans for another Versiti Blood Donor Drive in the near future. With the support of our school partners, students, and community members, we aim to continue fostering a spirit of generosity and compassion.
