We Are Blood is proud to partner with our local sports teams to encourage fans to come out and donate at team-hosted blood drives throughout the year and become local MVPs.
This year, we have seen a record high patient need for blood transfusions at hospitals across Central Texas. Our community partnerships have played a crucial role in ensuring local hospitals are able to meet those transfusion needs. They exemplify a shared commitment to our community’s health and wellness, not only helping to maintain a steady blood supply, but inspiring community members who may have never donated before, offering special incentives and raising awareness about the ongoing critical need for blood donors in Central Texas.

It’s a homerun!
The Round Rock Express is a proud partner with We Are Blood. Each year, we work together to host one summer mobile drive in the United Heritage Center at Dell Diamond. We partner in the summer months as the season is underway and blood donations tend to dip due to schools being out of session and individuals becoming busy with summer vacation and family commitments.
Keep your eyes peeled for our next Express blood drive in 2025!
Do You Like A Little Competition?
This football season, Abbott and the Big Ten are pitting school against school in the largest blood donation competition of our lifetime to fight the largest blood shortage in a generation. With Abbott and The Big Ten Conference®, We Are Blood is supporting “The We Give Blood Drive” campaign which will run through December 6, 2024. During this time, we encourage folks to learn more about the importance of blood donation and to visit the nearest blood center to donate blood.
If you went to a Big Ten university and want your school to win, then get to a We Are Blood donor center or mobile drive near you to score a point for your school of choice. Every donation submission gets one point on the leaderboard. The winning school will receive $1 million to advance student or community health. Individual donors will be offered a free one-month subscription to B1G+ and will be entered to win a trip to the 2024 Discover® Big Ten Football Championship Game on December 7, 2024!
