We're Blood Drive Winners!


It's official: City Tech is one of the top 25 organizations in Brooklyn and Staten Island for the most blood donated in 2007-2008. Thanks to all the faculty, staff, and students who rolled up their sleeves for our Race for Blood, we collected 177 pints of blood!


Congraulations to everyone who participated in our campaign by donating or encouraging friends and co-workers to donate as well.

Right now, New York City is facing a blood-shortage crisis; the metropolitan area has fewer than five days supply of blood available. If you donated in our blood drive in April, you are eligible to donate again. Check here for locations to donate near City Tech or your home. (And hey--you could get free Mets tickets or other goodies in the process!)


Finally, the Student Wellness Center and New York Blood Center will be teaming up with Entertainment Technology students and faculty to present Blood, Guts, and Gore Halloween Drive! Stay tuned in the coming months for all the terrifying details. . .
