On Monday, October 9 from 9-2 p.m. at FMS (in the gym) there will be a blood drive in honor of Ruby. Ruby was diagnosed with inoperable Stage III, Group III embryonic rhabdomyosarcoma which is a nasal cavity cancer. This type of cancer affects about 250 children a year in the US. Donating blood can help patients like Ruby maintain healthier lives and outcomes because blood donations lengthen and save the lives of those who have cancer. Please consider signing up and donating at the blood drive. https://bit.ly/3L6427A 🤍🩸🩹
