Mahalo to all who participated in the Hawaiʻi HOME Project School Supply Drive!
Welcoming the newest ʻImi
Created by a JABSOM student, you have a chance on August 27 to support MIND (Medical Innovation and Design) Hawaii, a student-led interdisciplinary collaboration between the University of Hawaii’s medical, nursing, engineering, business, and science students. All they ask is that you consider donating blood on August 27, in the UH Campus Center at UH Manoa, from 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
MIND students work together to design, market, and patent engineering solutions to modern medical problems. And the need for blood is always a pressing medical problem.
