Southern Careers Institute Partners with Regional Blood Banks for 2025 Community Blood Drive Initiative

Quarterly blood drives in partnership with South Texas Blood and We Are Blood aim to support critical healthcare needs in Texas.

AUSTIN, TX, UNITED STATES, February 6, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Southern Careers Institute (SCI) has announced its 2025 blood drive schedule in collaboration with South Texas Blood and We Are Blood. These partnerships will bring quarterly blood donation events to multiple SCI campuses, helping meet the constant demand for blood donations. The initiative spans all eight SCI campuses, from Austin to Brownsville.

Through its partnership with South Texas Blood, SCI will host drives at multiple locations through the first quarter. The first scheduled drives are:

In partnership with South Texas Blood:

2/6: San Antonio North campus - 8:30 am - 1:30 pm & 5:30 pm - 9 pm
2/13: San Antonio South campus - 10:00 am - 3:00 pm

In partnership with We Are Blood:

SCI and We Are Blood hosted a blood drive in late January and will continue to collaborate throughout the year, with additional dates to be announced.

Despite the constant demand, only about 3% of age-eligible individuals donate blood annually. SCI is pleased to partner with South Texas Blood, and We Are Blood to help meet this vital need in its community.
