January 2026 STVM Blood Drive

It’s that time of the year again, Irish, where we need your support in the American Red Cross blood drive! The need for donations is never-ending, and with your help, we can make a meaningful contribution to the community. 

Why Should I Sign up?

You should consider signing up for a few reasons. For starters, this could be your way to give back and support the community. Another reason is that the need for blood is constant, nationwide; someone needs a unit of blood every 2 to 3 seconds, so there’s never a moment when your donation would not be a necessity. Who knows, maybe even you or someone close to you 

Where & When?

The drive will be held on January 23rd from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM in the Cosgrove.

Specifically for our STVM students: To sign up, you must be at least 16, or 16 with a parent permission slip available in Dr. Rickles’ room (room 252) or picked up from STVM senior Isabel Petit. You are also allowed to do a walk-in and fill out your information when you get there if you do not require a parent permission slip. If you donate blood, you receive a free STVM dress-down for that day and will be credited with 3-6 service hours, depending on your donation. Even without donating, you can help by spreading the word to friends.
