Published by Kirby Winn on Thursday, October 3, 2024 in News Releases ImpactLife is part of an effort by the Big Ten conference and Abbott to increase blood donation by students, alumni, and fans of Big Ten schools. The “We Give Blood Drive” is now underway with Big Ten schools vying for a $1 million grant to advance student or community health by recruiting the greatest number of donors among the Big Ten by Nov. 17, 2024. Every donation scores one point for the Big Ten school designated by the donor on the leaderboard. The winning school will receive $1 million to advance student or community health. Individual donors will be offered a free one month subscription to B1G+ and will be entered to win a trip to the 2024 Discover® Big Ten Football Championship Game on December 7, 2024. To book an appointment for donation, call (800) 747-5401, text 999-777, or book online at bloodcenter.org, or via the Blood Center's mobile app (www.bloodcenter.org/app).
