UM students help donate blood during holiday shortage

The University of Montana and Montana State students are helping fight the blood shortage that happens around the holiday season. The annual competition between the schools comes at just the right time of the year to help the Red Cross with donations. Each donation has the potential to save three lives. One of the reasons donations drop is because routine donors are out of town. Reporter Caryn Foehringer and photographer Spencer Jakobi went to a blood drive to see what it means to community to donate. For dates on future blood drives in the month of November click here.
