Recognition: School Drive Partners

Puyallup High School’s (PHS) Health Occupations Students of America (HOSA) club sponsors three extremely successful blood drives each school year. In February 2010, PHS was recognized by CRBS as High School Blood Drive of the Year for 2009 because of its excellent results and the great job the students and staff do preparing for the drives. They work hard to recruit donors and to make sure the drive runs as smoothly as possible. Thank you to Pam Reichel, our blood drive coordinator, for her enthusiasm and commitment to the students and the blood drive program. Thanks also to the PHS HOSA students, the administration, staff and the hundreds of generous PHS blood donors.


2010–11 blood drive results:
Registered donors: 380
First-time donors: 194


Outstanding 2010–11 blood drive's at Puyallup High School!!!

We love the consistency, enthusiasm and fun that Puyallup’s HOSA (Health Occupations Students of America) students bring to their blood drive program. Check out the photos of their custom t-shirts and participation poster (now hanging in the PHS Commons). PHS HOSA sponsors three blood drives each year. Their contributions to CRBS directly support Good Samaritan Hospital and our other community hospitals. 

Special thanks to Pam Reichel, Medical Science Teacher and HOSA Advisor, Amber Sun and Alyssa Ng, HOSA President and VP, and all the HOSA volunteers that recruited donors and managed the drive seamlessly—YOU ROCK!

PHS HOSA outdid themselves with their “Donate Your Heart to the PHS Blood Drive” poster! The poster hung in the foyer during the blood drive – each donor wrote their name on a red heart and added it to the poster. We ♥♥♥  this!! The poster is on display in the PHS Commons.
