The superior vena cava receives blood from the right and left brachiocephalic veins, which in turn receive blood from the right and left subclavian veins (upper limbs), and right and left internal jugular veins (head). It drains into the right atrium of the heart.

The right atrium. Below is an explanation of the blood flow through the heart and body.

Deoxogenized blood enters through the superior and inferior vena cava into the right atrium, goes through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle, then pumped through the plumonary artery to the lungs. The blood comes back from the lungs oxygenized through the plumonary vein into the left atrium, through the mitral valve, into the left ventricle o be pumped through the aorta to the entire human body... and then the cycle repeats.
