Scholarships for college

High school and college students can earn scholarships by participating in our Save the Summer and Holiday Hero programs. A recruiter will help you set up a blood drive and rally your friends, family and the community by providing posters and recruitment tools. We’ll send your scholarship directly to the college or university of your choice.

Grants for high school clubs

We award grants to local student organizations that use service hours to help with drives, such as HOSA, JROTC and other school clubs. Your high school must meet certain goals based on school size and donations collected the prior year.
