Recognition: School Drive Partners

Pacific Lutheran University (PLU) had an OUTSTANDING two-day blood drive Sept 19–20! The LUTES exceeded their goal by registering 210 blood donors; 117 were first time donors! The PLU blood drive program is sponsored by DELTA IOTA CHI School of Nursing service club. BIG THANKS to all the Delta volunteers who helped with the sign-up table and on the bloodmobiles the day of the drive. SPECIAL THANKS to our phenomenal blood drive coordinator, NATALIE BISCEGLIA. Even before classes started, Natalie was working hard to get things in place to ensure that this drive was going to be the huge success that it was. After the long and challenging summer months, having such a large drive provides a huge boost for our community’s blood supply.

School blood drives provide approximately 20 percent of the blood supply for our community hospitals. Thank you to all the LUTES who took the time to donate! It’s great to have you back and we hope you have a fantastic year!
