Thanksgiving Blood Drive
Nassau Community College, in conjunction with Nassau University Medical Center, invites members of the community to make a blood donation during its Thanksgiving blood drive, scheduled for Thursday, November 17 from 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. in the College Center Building.
NCC, along with Nassau University Medical Center, hopes to supply a substantial percentage of our area’s ongoing need for blood products. The drive also reflects the College’s six times a year effort to encourage all able individuals to participate in this vital activity.
Make an appointment to give blood by calling Dr. Friedman or Barbara Vollmer at 516.572.7883, or just stop in on Thursday, November 17. The donation process takes less than an hour and refreshments will be served to participants. NCC’s Thanksgiving blood drive is sponsored by the Phi Theta Kappa honor society (evening division), the Engineering Society of Nassau Community College and the Society of Women Engineers.
