You Should Donate Blood At The Missouri State Blood Drive

1. One pint of blood can save up to 3 lives

Wouldn't it be awesome to save someone's life?

2. You get a service hour

Doing volunteer work is always important! Especially if your in FSL or have scholarships.

3. You get free pizza

Who doesn't love free food?

4. You get a free long-sleeved maroon t-shirt

It's super cute! Don't miss out!

5. The blood will go to local hospitals

This is very important as most blood drives donate all over the country, while this one you can donate to someone right here in our town.

6. You can vote for which sorority or fraternity you want to win the bloody cup competition which includes $300 towards a philanthropy of their choice

It's a fun competition that goes towards a good cause.

7. You can only get the blood drive house drink at the blood drive (powerade & lemonade mix)

It's really good I promise, if you haven't tried it you should.

8. You can feel good about yourself

At the end of the day that's all that really matters.

It's okay if you're scared of needles! Bring your friends instead! There is a blood shortage right now and a lot of people in need. Hope to see you there!
