The blood drive was put on by Norwalk’s own National Honor Society and the team of medical staff that draws the blood. The blood is used for a variety of different medical reasons.“A majority of the blood goes to people who have been in accidents that could be fatal,” said Jordan Oulman, one of the workers drawing blood during the drive. “They also use it to help cancer patients as the blood helps the rebuilding of their immune systems.” Another use of the blood is helping mothers who have lost too much blood during childbirth. “I think that donating blood is very important as it helps people who have been in serious accidents, have serious injuries, or during childbirth,” said Mrs. Scandrett, the school nurse at Norwalk High School.The blood drive taking place at Norwalk High School was an opportunity for the students to get involved with medical fields that they would maybe want to do as a career.“I think it’s great that the blood drive is going on at Norwalk High School as it gets people involved and they can learn about blood,” said Mrs. Scandrett.Most of the setup work is done by Norwalk’s National Honor Society. Mrs. Flores said service is a big part of the mission of the group.“The members have to stop in and check with me to get their hours for the National Honor Society,” Mrs. Flores said.Mrs. Flores said she personally likes to give blood and she donates regularly. She said she is motivated to donate based off of events that happened Mrs. Flores’s mother.“The blood drive was very successful,” Mrs. Flores said. “We collected 51 units of blood. The amount of blood collected should save the lives of 155 people in the local area.”</div></body>
