Follow on Google News | Devon Prep Students “Give the Gift of Life”Young men from the Main Line private school participate in annual American Red Cross Blood Drive.
In addition to donating whole blood that contains red blood cells, platelets and plasma, several of Devon Prep’s donors opted to participate in the Automated Red Cell Collection, where they provided two units of life-saving red blood cells during one donation. Some four million people give blood each year through the Red Cross, making it the largest supplier of blood and blood products in the United States. For more than 50 years, the American Red Cross has been an innovator and a leader in transfusion medicine and research. Started as a relief effort to provide lifesaving plasma and blood during World War II, Red Cross Blood Services has grown-collecting and distributing nearly half the nation's blood supply and many therapeutic blood products. Devon Prep is a private, Catholic, college preparatory school for young men in grades six to 12, conducted by the Piarist Fathers. Devon Prep students hail from Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and Bucks counties as well as parts of Philadelphia. The Main Line campus sits on 20 acres on North Valley Forge Road in Devon, PA.
