ASB Blood Drive - Oct. 16
On Wednesday, October 16th, LifeStream Blood Bank will be on campus to host a blood drive, and there is room for you to give! Surgical and cancer patients; accident, burn, and trauma victims; even newborn babies need your help! If you are willing to donate, please consider helping out.
Sign up here: https://giftoflife.lstream.org/donor/schedules/drive_schedule/112287 or visit our table at lunch in the main quad.
Here are the donor requirements (height/weight), and here is the parental permission slip for anyone under 15-16 (15 is the minimum age to donate). Come to M-15 for paper copies if needed.
Anyone who donates will receive enough points for a $10 gift card to a vendor of their choice.
Here are some tips to help make your experience go smoothly:
- bring a current photo ID
- Maintain your regular meal schedule, but be sure to eat before you donate
- Increase your fluid intake (water is best) in the 48 hours prior to donation
- avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours after donation
Act now! Patients and their loved ones are counting on you. On their behalf, thank you.
Food Deliveries for Students
If you wish to bring food to your student during the school day, you are now required to check in with the attendance or front office staff in order to leave lunches or meals. We need to ensure the safety of your students and will not accept food from non family members, guardians or emergency contacts. Thank you for your understanding!

Vista Teen Outreach
MESSAGE FROM VTO CO-PRESIDENTS
Vista Teen Outreach (VTO) has had a remarkable year so far, and as we head into the fourth quarter, we’re busier than ever preparing for our annual holiday basket program. We continue to serve 14 schools and are now collaborating with various community groups to extend our reach. Each month, we support approximately 650 families facing food insecurity, ensuring that students and their families have access to essential resources. In addition to our work with schools and community groups, we’ve had some exciting milestones this year. We successfully hosted our first pickleball tournament fundraiser and provided 200 backpacks filled with school supplies through our Back-to-School Backpack project. We’re also proud to participate in the Feeding San Diego retail rescue program, collecting food donations from three retailers on a weekly basis. It truly takes a village to make this all happen.
We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to the many volunteers, sponsors, and donors who help us achieve our mission of supporting local families. Your dedication and generosity enable us to continue making a meaningful difference in our community.
Warmly,
Becky Kwock and Jason Tinling
Co-Presidents
