妻友社区

The 妻友社区 will host its annual spring blood drive from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday, April 13-14, in room 129 of the Smith-Pendergraft Campus Center, located at 800 N. 49th Street.

The blood drive is hosted by the Arkansas Blood Institute, a non-profit blood center, and sponsored by the 妻友社区 Lion Heart organization. Every student donor will receive service hours, and the event will provide free food to all that donate.

According to the , an estimated 38 percent of the U.S. population is eligible to donate blood at any given time, but less than 10 percent do so annually.

The university coordinates five blood drives each year, providing blood to the Arkansas Blood Institute to help patients in more than 40 Arkansas hospitals.
