Community Blood Drive & Wellness DayMay 16, 2026 | 9:00 A.M. - 2:00 P.M.Dr. Charles R. Drew Elementary School Every day in the U.S. approximately 36,000 units of red blood cells are needed. That means every two seconds, someone needs blood. There is no substitute for blood, so hospitals depend on donations for life-saving blood. Zeta Chi Omega will make an impact on May 16 by rallying the community to donate 40 units of blood. Our stretch goal is 70 units in honor of Zeta Chi Omega's 70 amazing years, so let’s roll up our sleeves and share this opportunity with others. Click here to make an appointment
