Location
Fountain Lounge, Student Union


Join us to help save lives by donating blood on Wednesday, Nov. 13 from noon to 6 p.m. in the Fountain Lounge in the Student Union on the McNichols Campus.

Detroit Mercy’s Chi Gamma Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., is hosting this blood drive for sickle cell patients. Individuals with sickle cell disease may need up to 100 units of blood per year. Blood transfusions from an individual with healthy red blood cells can help prevent complications of sickle cell disease and alleviate symptoms. Currently, there are not enough blood donors to meet the need for blood transfusions for those who have sickle cell disease. Please consider donating!

Those who donate will also receive a $10 e-gift card and the chance to win $7K prize!
