Guess what IHS?! Key Club is excited to announce that they will be hosting Ithaca High School’s first blood drive of the year on Nov. 13th. Did you know that 240 units of blood were donated and
sent to El Paso, Texas after the mass shooting at the city’s Walmart? If you sign up to donate blood you will directly impact human lives. Sign ups will be in the cafeteria during lunch periods this Thursday and Friday, and next Tuesday. You must be 16 with parental consent, or 17 and up. All donors must weigh at least 110 lbs.
