Students encourage peers to donate blood, save lives
BRANDON, S.D. (KELO) — For 16-year-old Cheyann Mccaffrey, today was her first time donating blood. 'The people in there are just so kind and very accommodating. They asked you if you want snacks, drinks, and it doesn't hurt. Goes very quickly–about ten minutes. If anything, the questionnaire is longer,' Brandon Valley Sophomore, Cheyann Mccaffrey said. Witnesses called in Sioux Falls murder trial She is one of the many students who helped spread the word for the Brandon Valley High School Blood Drive. 'We like to make a lot of posters and place them around the whole school. And it's also on social media. And so a lot of people are able to see it that way,' Brandon Valley Senior, Lily Christensen said. 'I just encourage, you know, people I know to come and do it with me,' Mccaffery said. These students hope that by encouraging their peers to donate blood when they are young, it will become something they do for years. 'It's good because we're young and healthy and it builds really good habits for our whole life,' Christensen said. But it's never too late to start giving. 'I think a lot of people think it's super scary because there's needles, but it's one single tiny poke and then you just kind of sit there after. I think it's a lot more important then people know. You donate a pint of blood, you're saving 3 or 4 lives,' Mccaffery said. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
