House announces State House Red Cross blood drive and collection for Hoosier veterans in need
Summary
Presiding officer asked members and staff to donate at a Red Cross blood drive tomorrow and to contribute to a collection for Hoosier Veterans in Need (HVAF); donation bins and QR codes were provided and collections run through the end of the month.
The presiding officer announced a State House Red Cross blood drive scheduled for 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. tomorrow and encouraged members and staff to donate. The chair framed the drive as a competition between the House and the Senate and urged House participation.
House members were also asked to support Hoosier Veterans in Need during the session. The chair said the House is collecting nonperishable food, clothing, hygiene items and monetary donations for HVAF (Helping Veterans and Families of Indiana) and thanked members who had already contributed. Collection bins, the chair said, are located in the front of the House chamber and on the Fourth Floor South Atrium, and flyers include QR codes for online donations. The chair said the collection will continue through the end of the month.
These announcements were made during routine announcements and are logistical in nature; no formal vote or appropriation was recorded in the transcript.
