Altruistic Academy is teaming up with The Big Red Bus to host a community blood drive on Thursday, May 8, from 10 AM to 3 PM at the academy's downtown Clearwater campus. This life-saving event invites students, faculty, and residents to roll up their sleeves and give the gift of life.

As a leading beauty and medical school, Altruistic Academy is deeply connected to the importance of blood donation through its phlebotomy program, which trains students in essential blood-drawing techniques for careers in healthcare. Partnering with The Big Red Bus, a trusted name in mobile blood donations, aligns perfectly with the academy's mission to support community wellness and public health. Every blood donation will go directly toward saving lives in local hospitals.

"Hosting this blood drive is a natural fit for us," said Christina Sisler, CEO at Altruistic Academy. "As a school that trains future medical professionals in phlebotomy, we understand firsthand the life-saving impact of blood donations. This event is an opportunity for our students and community to contribute to a cause that truly makes a difference in people's lives."
