Community Partner Helps Save Thousands of Lives
About 1,400 Airmen at Sheppard Air Force Base signed up to participate in a blood drive at the Wichita Falls base back in August. Texas Blood Institute collected more than 1,000 units of blood, which equates to more than 3,000 lives saved!
The blood drive invited both instructors and students to volunteer to donate blood.
“We appreciate the continued support from Sheppard Air Force Base in their commitment to their community blood supply.
