Battle Across the Border

Fall is in the air and football is well on its way. The American Red Cross is asking football fans to “Bleed their true colors” in the Battle Across the Border Campaign. This campaign is for The Ohio State University (OSU) or The University of Michigan (UM) fans to show support to their favorite team by donating the most blood. All donors that present to donate will receive a special t-shirt on Game Day, November 22^nd at the Donor Center in Toledo and Findlay, and at the blood drives listed below.

In honor of this competition we will be holding the following Blood Drives around this area:
