Don’t forget about the Blood Drive tomorrow, 2-6 pm at LHS. Sponsored by the LHS NHS!

We hope you will join us in our efforts to provide what could be a gift of life for someone. Help by sharing this information and/or make an appointment: https://donate.savealifenow.org/donor/schedules/drive_schedule/80691 The group code for our event is CBIL.
