ImpactLife and LLCC Student Life are thrilled to share that the first blood drive’s goal has been met! A big sincere thank you to the 19 members of this community who have signed up for today’s blood drive. Still, thinking about donating blood? Whether you are a first-time donor or a repeat one, there is still a chance for you to donate today and make a difference. Same-day appointments are available by visiting the collection site in Trutter and talking with a member of ImpactLife.
LLCC Student Life is so close to reaching the goal of 18 donations for the blood drive on Monday, Sept. 20! As of Tuesday, Sept. 14, they are six donors short of this goal. In addition to local demand, other parts of the country affected by Hurricane Ida also need blood donations. Your contributions come at a critical time as the college’s Blood Bank Partner, ImpactLife, has reported that they are at less than a three-day supply of blood for most blood types.
If you are a first-time or a returning donor, if you have any questions about donating or if you need assistance signing up, please reach out to Kyle Roughan, student engagement coordinator, at kyle.roughan@llcc.edu or 217-786-2315.
This number represents the number of lives saved by blood donations from LLCC over the last few years. LLCC Student Life is once again partnering with ImpactLife for a blood drive. The first blood drive of the year will be on Monday, Sept. 20 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Trutter Center.
This year, appointments are required to donate blood. For those who donate, ImpactLife will give donors their choice of a Retro T-Shirt or gift card as a thank you. Please help Student Life meet the donation goal of 20 units and continue growing the number of lives our college community has saved.

LLCC Student Life needs your help! At present, the LLCC Food Pantry is bare to the bones and requires the generous support of its faculty and staff to help fill up its shelves again. To help meet the student body’s needs, we are asking faculty and staff to donate to the Food Pantry.
What types of food donations can we accept, you ask? Well, Student Life can accept ready-to-eat meals essentially. Did you know that the Food Pantry also accepts donations of non-food items? We can! All donations should be in their original packaging listing the “use by,” “sell by” or “best if used by” date as this will assist us in ensuring we comply with USDA guidelines.
You can also give monetary donations through LLCC’s Foundation by going to https://llccfoundation.org/donate and choosing “LLCC Food Pantry” in the drop-down menu. This money will be used to purchase food and non-food items to supplement donations.
To learn more about the food pantry, don’t hesitate to get in touch with Student Life by visiting the office located in the lower level of Menard Hall across from Quiznos, calling 217-786-2241 or checking out the Campus Resource folder on the Lincoln Landing App (account required). Thank you in advance for helping us live our mission of providing support to LLCC students in the area of supplemental health and wellness by providing reliable access to a sufficient quantity of nutritious food.
