Give Blood To Honor Lakewood 8th Grade Student With Leukemia

LAKEWOOD, OH - Garfield Middle School will hold a blood drive in honor of one of its students, 8th grader Jeremy Steinbrick, and all children fighting cancer on March 6 from 3 to 7 p.m.

In July 2016, Jeremy was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, a form of childhood leukemia. He has had 21 life-saving blood transfusions since his diagnosis, and to honor his life and give back, his family and the school are rallying people to give blood.
