Berwick High School Blood Drive 10/04/2012
Berwick High School held a blood drive from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. Thursday in the front lobby with the portable blood unit parked under the school's front canopy. The blood drive was sponsored by the high school’s Health Occupations Students of America club and Allied Health Services/United Blood Services. Although the UBS Unit of Lafayette distributes blood to wherever it is needed in the United States, the blood drive also was to benefit two community members, Louis Tamporello and Stella Saleme, who are in need of blood due to illness. UBS serves hospitals and communities across the country while urging citizens’ to give blood three times a year to benefit multiple lives.
