Aim High Martial Arts and the American Red Cross have joined forces to host AIm High's first blood drive in over 10 years! The Red Cross has spent over 135 years providing humanitarian aid, including 75 years supplying blood to those in need, and we couldn't be more excited to join their cause.
The date of the drive will be Saturday November 15th. Appointments start as early as 9:00am with the final appointment beginning at 1:45pm. If you are willing and eligible to donate, click the link at the bottom of this email to give you the first chance to pick your appointment times.

Our goal is to get 29 appointments scheduled and at least 18 units of blood!
When it comes to donating you will have two appointment options "BLOOD" or "POWER RED".
"BLOOD" - A whole blood donation that involves drawing all components of blood (red blood cells, plasma, platelets, etc.) from a donor.Volume: Typically, around one pint of blood is collected.
"POWER RED" - A donation that uses a machine to separate red blood cells from the other blood components. Most of the platelets and plasma are then returned back to the donor.Volume: Twice the amount of red blood cells are collected compared to whole blood donation. Note: These donors must meet specific eligibility requirements and have A Neg, B Neg, or O blood types.
