St. Luke's Society hosted its fall blood drive on Nov. 19 and collected 101 pints of blood, crushing Hotchkiss's record! This drive will save up to 303 lives thanks to the overwhelming support of the School's community and many first-time donors.

Hotchkiss's previous record of 89 pints was set during the club's spring drive on April 8, when Hotchkiss became the school with the state’s largest blood collection in a single drive.

 "Whether it was donating blood, volunteering, bringing baked goods, encouraging others to donate, or just showing up, we really appreciate everyone’s efforts and cannot thank you all enough," said Clemmie Morlock '26, who coordinated the blood drive with Ellie Prinz '27 and the American Red Cross.
