Peotone, IL – Peotone High School’s Student Council is teaming up with the American Red Cross to host a blood drive on Tuesday, August 13. The event will take place at the high school, located at 605 W. North St., Peotone, IL 60468, and will provide an opportunity for the community to save lives by donating blood.
According to the Peotone High School Student Council, the blood drive aims to address the ongoing need for blood donations, particularly during the summer months when supplies often run low. Participants can register in advance using the provided link or choose to walk in on the day of the event.
In an effort to encourage participation, the Student Council is offering $20 Amazon gift cards to all donors. The incentive is a token of appreciation for the community’s support and contribution to this critical cause.
The blood drive is open to students, faculty, and community members. By donating blood, individuals can make a significant impact on the lives of patients in need. The collected blood will be used for various medical treatments, including surgeries, cancer care, and emergency response.
Organizers emphasize that every drop of blood donated can save lives and that community involvement is vital. They hope the incentive of Amazon gift cards will motivate more people to participate in the drive.
For more information or to register, individuals are encouraged to visit the school’s website or contact the Peotone High School Student Council.
