CHS would like to thank all who participated in our December Blood Drive. We had a huge turnout and 34 people donated for the very first time at our drive. A total of 42 units of blood was collected for the Hospitals. This will save the lives of 126 people in just one day.

Moreover, this was the largest drive at Clairemont High in over 5 years!

The next Blood Drive is scheduled for March 2, 2022. We hope all will consider to donate and help save lives.
