North Hunterdon High School will hold its next Blood Drive on Tuesday, November 23 from 7:30am to 3:30pm in the main gym. If you would like to donate, please make an appointment at: https://donate.nybc.org/donor/schedules/drive_schedule/286447
While students who are seventeen and eighteen years old may donate legally without parental permission, we ask that they speak with their parents/guardians before donating and that they obtain written permission; permission form for students to donate is included in the Principal’s letter, click here. We also extend a special invitation to our students who will be sixteen years old by November 23rd. With parental permission, sixteen-year-olds can donate in the state of New Jersey. In addition to filling out the permission form, they must also fill out the New Jersey Blood Services Parental Consent Form here: http://www.nhvweb.net/nhhs/home/files/2021/02/Blood-Drive-16-year-old-Consent-Form.pdf.
