Ithaca College

 #DonateInProtest at this Blood Drive sponsored by the IC Red Cross Club on November 28th from 11 AM to 6:30 PM in Emerson Suites. For this blood drive, ALL attendees (NOT JUST DONORS!) will have the opportunity to send a postcard straight to the FDA in protest of their discriminatory policies which restrict people with specific sexual histories from blood donation.

(See more on these policies at https://www.fda.gov/biologicsbloodvaccines/bloodbloodproducts/questionsaboutblood/ucm108186.htm) 

There will be photo/snapchat competitions and other related activities at this event and many of your favorite on campus clubs will be represented there! Not to mention some surprise performances from various individuals and groups. Come by and show your support for the cause, and you can help push for a change in legislation! 

Walk-ins are welcome, or sign up to donate in Campus Center from 8:00am-3:00pm from on Monday, November 27th. Otherwise, sign up at redcross.org/give-blood by typing in 14850 in the search bar and finding our November 28th Drive.
