Christian Franks '15, member of the Menlo College wrestling team and the Sophomore Class President, has been appointed to the Board of Directors of the American Red Cross Northern California Blood Services Region. He will replace Hanna Malak, who held the position before graduating from Menlo College earlier this year.

"My job is not only to get more participation in Menlo blood drives but also to increase constant participation in fixed sites for blood donation," said Franks.

Franks began volunteering for the Red Cross last year when he helped Malak set up blood drives on campus and made reminder calls to blood donors.
