Memorial Blood Centers (MBC) today announced the formal launch of an innovative new web-based system that adds convenience and enhanced privacy for blood donors when completing their pre-donation health history. The iDonate Interview (SM) program, for the first time, provides MBC blood donors the opportunity to answer all required health history questions-from the privacy of their home or office on the day of their donation.

The Center for Effective Philanthropy announced today that an innovative program bringing student voices forward into the education process has been implemented in more than 100 communities nationwide. The program, called YouthTruth, is a national survey project that provides comparative data to schools, districts, education networks and funders summarizing students' perceptions of what is working and not working in their high school experience.
