About:
Waverly Park Elementary School recently hosted a blood drive where student volunteers participated in the Little Doctors Program, sponsored by New York Blood Services. Little Doctors consisted of student council members and the entire fifth-grade who helped to make the event a success. The students solicited donors, made posters and announcements and worked hard on the day of the blood drive. The fifth-graders also checked donors in, instructed them on where to go, handed out snacks and water at the end of their donation and provided babysitting services. The event brought in over 50 people and the school collected 38 pints of blood, helping to save 114 lives!
