      <title>30 Hour Famine</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;World Vision's 30 Hour Famine is a worldwide movement of students who are serious about serving God and fighting hunger - &lt;strong&gt;all on an empty stomach&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For 30 hours, participants get a taste of hunger by not eating - something more than a billion people around the world experience every day. And by doing fundraising activities, community service projects, and learning more about the facts of hunger, students are changed in amazing ways as they help others and save lives.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;a href=http://www.bslc.com/Home/Highlights/EntryId/76/30-Hour-Famine/Default.aspx&gt;More...&lt;/a&gt;</description>

      <title>Soup and Cookies for FOCUS</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; language: en-US"&gt;Once again BSLC will be supporting FOCUS, an outreach to international students at PSU. Over the years, BSLC members have served bowls of delicious soup and homemade cookies to hundreds of students. We are asking for more willing cooks and servers, to give these students personal contact with Christians that care. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Blood Drive at BSLC</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="Larger"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="language: en-US"&gt;10 Facts About Blood Needs From The Red Cross&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Larger"&gt;&lt;span style="language: en-US"&gt;Every 10 seconds someone in the US needs blood.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Larger"&gt;&lt;span style="language: en-US"&gt;More than 38,000 blood donations are needed every day.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Larger"&gt;&lt;span style="language: en-US"&gt;1 out of every 10 people admitted in a hospital needs blood.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Larger"&gt;&lt;span style="language: en-US"&gt;Total blood transfusions given in one year: 14 million&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Larger"&gt;&lt;span style="language: en-US"&gt;The average red blood cell tranfusion is approximately 3 pints.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Larger"&gt;&lt;span style="language: en-US"&gt;The blood type most often requested in hospitals is Type O.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Larger"&gt;&lt;span style="language: en-US"&gt;The blood used in an emergency is already on the shelves before the event occurs.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Larger"&gt;&lt;span style="language: en-US"&gt;Sickle cell disease affects more than 80,000 people in the US. Sickle cell patients can require frequent blood transfusions throughout their lives.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Larger"&gt;&lt;span style="language: en-US"&gt;More than 1 million new people are diagnosed with cancer each year. Many of them will need blood, sometimes daily, during their chemotherapy treatment.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Larger"&gt;&lt;span style="language: en-US"&gt;A single car accident victim can require as many as 100 units of blood.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
