The 39th annual Big Blue Crush is here, offering Kentuckians a chance to one-up rival Tennessee while boosting the blood supply before the Thanksgiving holiday.

The yearly blood competition between Kentucky Blood Center and MEDIC Regional Blood Center in Tennessee will take place Nov. 16–20 at all KBC locations. KBC leads the series 23–14–1 in the all-important push to boost the blood supply before the Thanksgiving holiday week.

Donors can give at any of KBC’s eight donor centers or mobile drives throughout the week. Most KBC donor centers, listed below, are open 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. during Big Blue Crush (please see specific donor centers for exceptions). Mobile drives, including at the University of Kentucky, can be found below.

As a thank you for saving lives, all donors will receive a limited-edition long-sleeve shirt and a voucher for a free pint of ice cream from Blue Bell. All items are while supplies last.
