GPS sophomore Najia Humayun successfully coordinated the most recent blood drive on campus, asking students and faculty to donate blood in support of the second annual campaign by Muslims for Life, a national organization with a goal of 11,000 units for blood banks across the country.
The organization, which seeks to express that “Islam values the sanctity of life,” is honoring the 11th anniversary of 9/11 and is partnering with the American Red Cross and America’s Blood Centers in reaching the goal by the end of the one-month drive.
Over 40 students and faculty, some new to the donor world and other “old hands” on their third or more contribution, entered the Blood Assurance bus, named the Donorassic Adventure and painted with colorful Donorsaurus animals.
