December 8 - 13
In 2006 and 2007 UGA alumni and graduates of UF in the Savannah area took part in a Blood Drive Challenge. Both years the Bulldogs donated more than the Gators and we would like to keep that tradition going by asking you to “Give the Gift of Life.” This is your opportunity to not only prove that you bleed Georgia RED, but to also make a huge difference in the life of another.
Points will be given per donation during this weeklong event. The alumni team with the most points at week’s end will be declared the winner.
Whole Blood = 3 points; Platelets = 6 points (please call 912-961-5765 to make an appointment) and Platelets + Red Cells = 6 points + a 2 point conversion and donors who attempt, but are deferred = 1 point.
If you have questions about whether or not you are eligible to donate, click here.
Please plan to visit the location below and participate in this very worthwhile cause. When you arrive, tell the staff that you are a proud Georgia Bulldog.
