Mountain Ridge High School Students Save Lives with School Blood Drive

Mountain Ridge High School’s Health Occupations Students of America (HOSA) students held the school’s largest-ever blood drive to benefit ARUP Blood Services. Last week, the student-led event collected 44 units of blood, beating their March 2023 record of 39 units.

So far this school year, ARUP has collected 422 units of blood through Jordan School District high school-led blood drives, with Copper Hills High School contributing 152 at their last event. All the blood products collected are given to Utah cancer patients, transplant patients, surgery patients, accident and trauma victims, anemia patients, sickle cell patients, and many more.

Way to go, Jordan School District HOSA students! Your hard work is helping save many Utah lives. ARUP Blood Services says they cannot stress enough their gratitude for each one of these high school-sponsored blood drives.
