Host a Blood Drive during Winter 2024!

Thank you for your interest in hosting a blood drive during the Winter 2024 Semester! We cannot have these drives without your efforts. Please note that all drives are located on the GVSU Allendale Campus, in Kirkhof Center. Our partner, Versiti Blood Center of MI, requires that hosting organizations attend a meeting before each blood drive that will last between 30 minutes to 1 hour. Hosting responsibilities include but are not limited to:

  • Attending the pre-drive meeting.
  • Recruiting donors.
  • Providing volunteers to help work the snack table.

Keep in mind that hosting dates are given on a first to come, first served basis. After your organization has accepted the responsibilities of hosting by submitting this form, we will connect you with Versiti. If your organization has to cancel or cannot follow through with the hosting responsibilities, please notify us at least 30 days prior to your drive's date. Please note that canceling can and may affect your organization's ability to host in the future.
