High school Opportunities
LifeServe 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, 2025, and June 30, 2026, 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.
Donor of Distinction Program
High school students who register to donate blood three times before graduation or host a scholarship blood drive will earn the honor of becoming a LifeServe Donor of Distinction. As a Donor of Distinction, students will be awarded the following:
- Special red honors cord to wear at graduation

To earn this title and receive the red cord, students may have to donate at a community blood drive or donor center in addition to school sponsored blood drives.
