The recent blood drive at our high school, organized by the WANIC HOSA- Future Healthcare Professionals Executive Board, was a resounding success with approximately 40 students stepping up to donate blood. The event was coordinated by Tooba, the afternoon session’s HOSA VP of Community Service, whose outstanding efforts ensured a smooth and impactful experience for all participants. Our HOSA Board Members, lead by Tooba, were instrumental in facilitating an event that has the potential to save numerous lives. This blood drive not only highlighted the importance of giving blood but also underscored the profound honor we feel in contributing to such a vital cause, offering the priceless gift of saving lives. KUDOS to the volunteers and donors!! Bloodworks Northwest Photo Credit - WANIC Skills Center

CBTECH Fire Science students attending a three day community service project! They started by teaching water safety to the Moses Lake Christian Academy through the Washington State Parks and Rec Paddle Safe Program. Each student gets fitted with a life jacket 🛟 to keep, learns how to safely maneuver a kayak, and spends the afternoon paddling a few miles around Moses Lake. After that they stocked the boat launch with new life vests in case anyone needed one, and collected all the loose garbage around the park. Our CBTECH Fire Science students are determined to continue to make this world a better place! #firescience #makingadifference #safetyfirst #lifejackets #paddlesafeprogram #moseslakewa
