CBC CELEBRATES SUPER BOWL LVII WITH 57 PRIZES FOR BLOOD DONORS

January 16, 2023

DAYTON, Ohio - Celebrate the coming of Super Bowl LVII with a blood donation and get a chance to be one of 57 donors to win a $50 gift card.

Everyone who registers to donate Jan. 16 thru Jan. 31 at any Community Blood Center blood drive, or the Dayton CBC Donation Center, is automatically entered in the Super Bowl gift card drawing.  There will be 57 winners, and each will choose a $50 gift card.

Everyone who registers to donate will also receive the special edition "Give Blood, Give Love" long-sleeve, hoodie t-shirt. Make an appointment at www.DonorTime.com, call (937) 461-3220, or use the Donor Time app.

CBC is in low supply of type O and B negative blood. Meeting this demand and strengthening the winter supply is the mission of January National and Ohio Blood Donor Awareness Month.

Blood Donor Awareness Month was proclaimed nationally in 1969 and designated in Ohio in 2018 to thank donors and encourage more donations during the winter months when the holidays, severe weather, and seasonal illness create multiple challenges to maintaining a sufficient blood supply.
