The 17th Annual Back-to-School Blood Drive

Location: Tower Building, 11th floor

The Nassau University Medical Center invites students and their families to make a blood donation on the school's campus. The blood drive takes place approximately six times a year because of the high-need for supply.
Dr. Arthur Friedman, co-chair of NCC Blood Drive Task Force, emphasizes the need is critical to help the hospital in its function as a major trauma center. 
 “Through our educational efforts to increase the number of blood donors, and our own contributions, the College hopes we will help meet a substantial level of the community's blood needs," said Friedman. "We look forward to working in partnership with community residents in this much needed blood drive.”
Must be age 17 and over with a photo ID. Snack will be provided.
