WSS 5th Graders Help Make 2nd Annual Blood Drive a Success

Did you know that approximately 38,000 pints of blood are needed every day in the United States? Well, Washington Street School’s fifth graders held a blood drive to help. We asked our family, friends, teachers, and neighbors to donate blood at our April 7th blood drive. As participants in the Little Doctors program, we made posters, wore scrubs, wrote thank you cards, and assisted at the drive. Almost 100 pints of blood were collected. It was a great experience for all of the fifth graders. When we turn sixteen, we’ll get to donate blood too!
