The University of Arkansas - Fort Smith will host a blood drive from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 29, and Thursday, Jan. 30, in the Reynolds Room of the Smith-Pendergraft Campus Center on the ԰ɵ campus, located at 800 N. 49th Street. January is National Volunteer Blood Donor Month, making this month's drive especially important.

 

Every donor will receive a “Friends” themed t-shirt and a health screening. Donors who bring a friend will also be entered to win a Friends Night Out gift package that comes with two $10 Malco gift cards and a $50 Olive Garden gift card! 

 

԰ɵ coordinates five blood drives each year in an effort to help patients in more than 40 Arkansas hospitals. The donated blood is provided to the Arkansas Blood Institute, a non-profit blood center. 

 

Interested donors may drop in or schedule an appointment by contacting the Student Activities Office at 479-788-7699 or studentactivities@uafs.edu.
