The Newark Valley Fire Department is hosting a blood drive with the American Red Cross to honor the memory of Kelly Perkins, the Ithaca College first-year student who was killed in an automobile accident on March 4. The drive will take place on Monday, April 15, from 1:00–6:00 p.m. at the Newark Valley Fire Hall, located at 7151 State Route 38 in Newark Valley.
The blood drive is being organized by friends of the Perkins family. Kelly’s parents, Debbie and Enoch, are both longtime Ithaca College employees, and she was a graduate of Newark Valley Senior High School. More information can be found on the Facebook event page.
If you can’t take part in this drive, please consider donating blood in Kelly’s memory at another time.
