— DES MOINES, Iowa – Volunteers are the heart of The Blood Center of Iowa. Without those who help to recruit volunteers, organize blood drives and donate their blood to patients in need, The Blood Center could not fulfill its mission of supplying blood and blood products to 49 hospitals in 44 Iowa counties.
The volunteer spirit was truly evident at the Centerville High School blood drive held on Wednesday, May 7.
Many responded to the call to donate blood with 108 students and staff registering to give blood. The center collected 74 pints of blood, which will help make a difference in the lives of 222 hospital patients in need.
There were 53 first time donors. We would like to recognize the blood donors who made a valuable contribution to the local community by participating in this event. The Blood Center of Iowa would like to commend the CHS Student Council students for their significant contribution to the blood drive.
Laura De Prizio and Catherine Lechtenberg played an important role in motivating volunteers and organizing the event.
The Blood Center of Iowa would also like to thank Principal Bill Messerole for his support of blood donation by allowing the drive to happen at the school.
