Today black history month highlight is:  Dr. Charles Richard Drew

Drew pioneered America's first large-scale blood bank during World War II.

Background: Drew was born in Washington, D.C. As a child, he was an athlete and top student. He graduated from Amherst College before studying medicine at McGill University in Canada.

Invention: In the late 1930s, Drew invented a way to process and preserve blood plasma, allowing it to be stored and shipped for blood transfusions. Until then, blood was perishable and not fit for use after about a week. Drew's invention vastly improved the efficiency of blood banks.


Now, please stand if you are able as we say the Pledge of Allegiance. 


I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
