Hurricane Irma left many areas damaged, flooded and without power. With statewide efforts to rebuild already underway, UNF is doing its part to help. A OneBlood blood drive will take place on campus Thursday, Sept. 14.

The Department of Recreation and Wellness will be hosting the drive from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m. in the Osprey Plaza by the Student Union.

OneBlood encourages all people to donate, but platelet donors and people with O-negative blood are in high demand.
