Donations Take Less Than One Hour and Save Up to Three Lives
University of Kentucky students, faculty and staff can start the school year off on the right foot by donating blood and saving local lives.
Kentucky Blood Center will host a five-day blood drive Aug. 28–Sept. 1 to collect blood and supply local hospitals – including UK Healthcare – with lifesaving blood. KBC will be in Gatton Student Center Ballroom Aug. 28–Sept. 1 (Monday through Friday) from 10 a.m.–5 p.m. every day. Additionally, a KBC bloodmobile will also be outside William T. Young Library on Monday, Aug. 28 from 4-8 p.m.
All donors will be thanked for their time and donation with a free Give Local T-shirt, a $5 Starbucks gift card and a One Hour Bounce Back Card from Main Event. A Bounce Back Card is good for 60 minutes of free arcade play at Main Event.
