‘Buckeye’
T-Shirt for December blood drives
DAYTON & DARKE COUNTY, Ohio – Darke County offers several blood
drive options in December. Everyone who registers to donate will
receive the “Buckeye Blood Donor” football t-shirt up through December
13th. Donors are encouraged to schedule an appointment online at
www.DonorTime.com.
December is an exciting month in college football with conference
championships on the line, including the Big Ten Championship Dec. 6,
and the beginning of the bowl season. CBC is encouraging donors to be
champions for saving lives with the “Buckeye Blood Donor” t-shirt.
The charcoal grey t-shirt features a red football helmet with “Buckeye”
and the CBC blood drop in a map of Ohio as the team emblem and “Blood
Donor” across the chest. It’s free to everyone who registers to donate
now through Saturday, Dec. 13 at any CBC Donor Center and most CBC
mobile blood drives.
The Christmas and New Year holiday period can be a challenging time for
maintaining the community blood supply. Donation schedules are often
disrupted due to school vacations, holiday activities and family
travel. CBC reminds donors that if you miss a chance to donate
please reschedule when you’re able.
