 | | A collaboration between Eastern Michigan and the American Red Cross, it is the sixth year that the two worked together to encourage students to donate blood or have their bone marrow tested, said Gerry Abejurl, Regional Representative for the Red Cross. |
 | | Just one of the 14-16 visits that the Red Cross does at EMU each year, this week's events have already been successful, as the drive in Downing is collecting 30-45 pints of blood each day, Abejurl said. |
 | | Alpha Phi Omega runs the four-day blood drive once in the fall and again in February, Abejurl said, adding that nurses and other volunteers are important in their efforts. |
