Potentially, more than 200 lives may be saved thanks to the donors who participated in Penn State York’s Community Blood Drive in partnership with the American Red Cross and Fox 43 News on Aug. 24. There were 82 donors registered, including 27 first-time donors, and 78 pints of blood collected.
Never too busy for a good cause, Lieutenant Bob Lehman, Police and Public Safety Department at Penn State York, took a few minutes out of his schedule to make a donation. The need for blood donations is critical, and members of the campus and community helped to make a difference.
Donating blood is a tangible way to help people who are struggling with serious health conditions, yet many people may not think about it or make time for it.
