The most recent drive, which was held on Tuesday, November 15, was the most successful to date. Although SUNY Poly always meets and/or surpasses the donation goals, this was the highest amount of donations since September 2013! The Red Cross collected 38 whole blood donations and 6 "Power Red" donations!

Please see the thank you message from our Red Cross representative:

I so much appreciate your dedication. The positive impact from your efforts resulted in helping more hospital patients. In a timeframe where over all blood collections are down it’s nice to see that if we work together we can make a difference.

I also would like to thank Elias Zeina, College Council representative and the Political Science and Duel Academy clubs for all of their assistance.

Please mark your calendars for the next blood drives on:

Tuesday, February 7 from 11:30 AM to 4:30 PM in the Student Center MPR

Wednesday, April 5 from 11:30 AM to 4:30 PM in the Campus Center, Upper Lobby (during the Wellness Fair)

Thank you,

Student Government at Utica and the American Red Cross
