Attention Staff and High School Students Ages 16 and up:
On Friday October 11th Westview National Honor Society will be hosting a blood drive:
As Hurricane Helene has brought widespread, life-threatening storm surges, flooding and high winds throughout the Southeast, dozens of American Red Cross blood drives have been canceled, impacting blood and platelet donations. The Red Cross also sent hundreds of blood products to Florida to ensure blood products remain available for patients in affected areas.
If you are in an area unimpacted by the storm, please make an appointment to donate. You can register at redcrossblood.org for a blood drive near you.
Together, we can help the blood and platelet supply weather this storm and ensure patients continue to get necessary and lifesaving blood products.
Congratulations to Westview's four Lilly Endowment Scholarship Finalists for the Class of 2025: Grace Heyerly, Morgan Riegsecker, Gavin Engle, and Annagail Warrener.
