scholarship tiersred cordLifeServe Blood Center’s newly enhanced High School Scholarship Program offers schools the opportunity to turn student leadership and service into real scholarship dollars. By hosting just two or more blood drives with LifeServe between July 1, 2026, and June 30, 2027, your school can unlock scholarship funding for your students or your school. Scholarship amounts range from $500 to $5,000 based on units collected throughout all blood drives during the timeframe.

Let’s work together to create future leaders who care deeply about their community and the lives they touch.

Little LifeServer Program

This program is meant to introduce students to and engage them in the idea of blood donation early so that when they become eligible (16 or 17 years of age with parental permission) to donate, they are aware and ready to commit to supporting the community blood supply. Our Territory Representatives work with schools to educate about blood components, the function of blood, and the importance of blood donation. The information is grade-level appropriate curriculum and includes classroom activities along with planning, donor recruitment for a school hosted blood drive, and recognition tools to support the program.
