They did both in order to involve not only their current students, but also to reach out and include their graduates and members of the community. First they hosted a community blood drive which was open to the public as well as the local Ross family. Then they also hosted a career fair to which they invited Donna Miller, PHR, SHRM-CP, a Recruiter from Ascension Health and Kimberly Alsept-Gard, the Mission &#038; Float Pool Manager at Ascension Health.<\/p>\n<p>The campus was proud to host a blood drive in partnership with the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.redcross.org\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">American Red Cross<\/a>. They actually had the blood drive during the career fair said Campus Director Tara Ford. \u201cWe had both events simultaneously to increase our donor pool. During our blood drive we registered 14 donors and collected 12 pints of blood. Our team also registered 9 first time donors.\u201d The campus was excited to be a part of this life-saving effort.<\/p>\n<p>During the career fair, the representatives from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stvincent.org\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Ascension Health\u2019s St. Vincent Medical Group<\/a> interviewed students from all programs. These interviews were held for active jobs in the field.
