Saint Paschal Baylon sponsors frequent blood drives throughout the year, utilizing both the American Red Cross and LifeShare Community Blood Services. All eligible donors are encouraged to donate blood if they are able.
The benefits of donating blood are many. First and foremost, blood donations save lives! It is also a great opportunity to help our school financially, as both LifeShare and the American Red Cross offer educational grant programs as an incentive to donors. Donors benefit themselves by giving blood as well.
