Starmont Student Council Hosting Blood Drive

The Starmont Student Council is hosting a Red Cross blood drive at the school’s high school cafe today.

Junior Jase Tommasin says donors are welcome this afternoon between 1:30 and 6:30 pm – and student council members will be there to greet you at the door.

Starmont hosts two blood drives each school year – one in December run by the student council and one in the spring run by NHS. Fellow junior Olivia Henry is among the students who have donated blood. 

Tommasin says there is a critical need for blood donations right now, especially with the illnesses and weather issues that pop up during the winter months.

Starmont usually sees around 75 donors at each of their blood drives.
