Training sessions for all volunteers will be offered on the Shelby, Belknap and Health Sciences campuses. The American Red Cross is out for blood, and U of L faculty and staff will have the opportunity to give during a June 29 blood drive at the Red Barn. The event will be from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and is being coordinated by U of L's human resources department in conjunction with community relations. Appointments are not necessary. To meet the demand for blood nationwide, Red Cross offices must collect 500 pints of blood per day.
Statistics show that donations fall significantly in summer months.
