Be a Hero at the Big House on Sunday, October 9th by signing up to donate blood, join the organ donor registry, or join the bone marrow registry. This is our largest event of the year and a chance to see Michigan Stadium from the luxurious Jack Roth Stadium Club.
Blood donations count towards the 40th annual Blood Battle event. You don’t want to miss the largest single-day blood drive on the University of Michigan’s campus. Click here to avoid the wait and make an appointment ahead of time (sponsor code: goblue).
Join us for entertainment, activities, giveaways, special guests, and more throughout the day.
Important: In order to protect our immunocompromised guests and volunteers, masks will be required at this year’s event.
Visit www.redcrossblood.org and enter sponsor code "goblue" for a list of participating drives.
