As part of the GHS Community Give Back program, we are encouraging eligible High School Students to begin the practice of giving blood and saving lives. If you are 16 or 17 (with Parent permission) or 18 years of age, weigh at least 120 pounds and are in good health you are a good candidate to begin giving blood. You may sign-up in the High School Office, as well as pick-up your parent release. *Please remember photo ID is required at the time you give.
*NOTE: Once the blood mobile is finished at school, they will move downtown to the Senior Center and public donations can take place from 4:30 to 6:00 p.m. The public is encouraged to participate. There is always a need for blood donations, and this simple process saves lives.
