    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

    Get in the Game of Saving Lives 

    November 16, 2017 (St. Paul, MN) – This month, all presenting blood donors with Memorial Blood Centers are automatically entered to win tickets to a Minnesota Vikings, Minnesota Wild, or UMD Men’s Hockey game.  Learn more at MBC.ORG/Tickets.

    Plus, those who present to donate from Monday, December 18, 2017 through Saturday, January 6, 2018 will also receive a free long-sleeve shirt as an extra thank you.

    Maintaining a stable blood supply during winter months and around holidays can be difficult, as many regular donors take vacations, observe holidays, or postpone their regular appointments.  Additionally, nearly 100% of the blood used by patients in Northland hospitals is donated by Northland blood donors with Memorial Blood Centers Give blood this holiday season and help save lives in your community!

    To find a blood drive or donor center nearest you, visit us     online, or see upcoming blood drives in your area listed below.  To register, go to MBC.ORG, or contact the sponsoring organization directly.  While walk-in donors are always welcome, we encourage appointments to be made in advance.  It’s important for donors to keep their blood donation appointments, as these appointments help MBC plan a stable supply of blood for local hospitals.
