Although Tenacre students are too young to give blood, there are many other ways they are contributing to the blood drive. Fifth and sixth graders will assist with registration, the canteen, and guiding donors to Wells Playhouse. Second graders have made posters, and third and fourth graders will write thank you notes to the donors.
To make an appointment, please contact the American Red Cross at 1-800-RED CROSS or visit www.redcrossblood.org
