This year's Face Off Blood Challenge will run from 1/18 through 2/25, pitting Michigan against Michigan State University. Whether you have never donated before or donate every year, your help is needed! Please make an appointment to donate on the American Red Cross website, using the sponsor code "goblue". There you will be able to view all of the drives in the Ann Arbor area. The American Red Cross will give all presenting donors a Face Off t-shirt, while supplies last.
Due to blood donation eligibility requirements set by the Food and Drug Administration and the American Red Cross, not everyone will be able to donate. However, all of our drives aim to provide an inclusive atmosphere. To learn more about blood donation requirements, please visit the website.
Please eat iron rich foods and drink plenty of water before you donate blood so that you are healthy on the day of your donation! Thank you once again for giving the gift of life. Please contact blooddrivesunited@umich.edu with any questions, and keep bleeding maize and blue!
