How Do I Host a Drive?

Why High School?

Because High Schools are the future for our patients in the hospital.  Healthy, young and enthusiastic students can help the blood supply in America now and when they leave high school by continuing to donate blood in their community.

What is Share the Future?

Share the future is a partnership between your school and UTMB Blood bank to save lives today and in the future.

Three paths for Success

  • Training/Education
  • Scheduling
  • Excitement

Blood Drive Tools

§         Passes

I know it does not happen in your school but some kids in other schools forge passes.  We provide passes and on the back it has all the basic requirements.  The student will fill out the Blood Drive pass and have a set time to donate.

§         Breakfast

We provide breakfast bars to avoid reactions.  All students must drink and eat before they donate.

§         Posters done for you

We provide Customized printed materials created just for high schools that includes a banner and lots of posters.

§         Leadership Training

We invite all students and teachers who work on the blood drives for a day of training.  Students can earn Community Service training. 

*****Extra bonus!

Book three drives today and at your third drive all students who have donated 3 times this year receive a special incentive! 

If your school would like to book a drive, please call Sheryl Dickerson at 409-772-2540 or Robert Runkle at 409-772-6551.
