Background
On a beautiful warm Thursday, October 29th 2022 some members of the Fall 2022 Term Community Service Group helped the local area Red Cross volunteer to run a Blood Drive at Pomfret's Wrestling Room. The event began at 1pm and went on until 6:30pm. Students and Faculty had a chance to donate blood to the Red Cross. Our Community Service volunteers helped set up the event, helped donors fill forms and helped nurses and Red Cross staff. Miriam Ivanenko '23 and a few students got signups during dining hours up to the event. Ms. Grassi and facilities helped bring the tables and chairs. Dr. Sandy Chase brought baked goods.
Students on hand that day were Dasha Pak '22, Zachary Bloxam '24, Maya Bullied '23, Ella Anderson '23, Zitong Jessica Huang '23, Cici Zeng '23, Kale Hart '23, Ginger Groch '24, Patrixia Padirayon '23, Tate Webster '24, and Arina Sinogeikina '24. Brandon McCray '24 donated blood.
