Help us kick off the Blood Battle at Michigan and defeat OSU by making an appointment to donate blood.

In the spirit of competition, we'll have five Brutus the Buckeye pinatas ready to take a beating in front of Hatcher Library.

There's no cost to attend. Just bring some aggression and the urge to beat Brutus with a stick.

We'll also have some fun giveaways throughout the afternoon!

Schedule a blood drive appointment between 10/29/2019 and 11/27/2019 to help us beat OSU in the annual Blood Battle competition! Visit www.redcrossblood.org and enter promo code "goblue."

Organized By: First Generation Student Gateway

We want to celebrate you and the ways first-generation students trailblaze! First-gens often show strength in the face of adversity. Stop by the Diag to show how you've been #FirstGenStrong. We will be taking pictures for social media and sharing some neat SWAG.

#FirstGenStrong is part of First Generation Week, which promotes the many ways first-generation students innovate, blaze new trails, and take risks.

CAPS is committed to creating an environment based on our values of multicultural, multi-disciplinary and multi-theoretical practices that allow our diverse student body to access care, receive high quality services and take positive pathways to mental health. We also strive to find creative ways of reaching out to students and the UM community to nurture and develop a proactive, renewed sense of engagement throughout the campus.
