Blood Drive Thursday At Tate High In Honor Of Senior Halee Boyd
January 30, 2013
A blood drive will be held tomorrow at Tate High School in honor of student Halee Boyd.
Halee, a Tate senior, is battling a rare cancer and is currently in pediatric intensive care fighting a blood infection, according to Mardi Boyd, her mother. Tuesday morning, Mardi Boyd appeared on Tate High’s in-house television morning show to appeal to students to give blood.
The blood drive will take place from 9 a.m. until 2:30 Thursday at the school for students, faculty and staff. All blood types are needed. Generally, healthy people age 16 or older who weigh at least 110 pounds can donate blood. Donors that are 16 must have parental consent.
