'Give Red, Give Life' blood drive begins Nov. 13

The WKU vs. MTSU Blood Drive competition will begin Monday (Nov. 13) at WKU's Preston Health and Activities Center.

The Give Red, Give Live blood drive will be held from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday-Wednesday (Nov. 13-15).

The event provides a competitive way in which supporters can donate blood during the week leading up to the WKU vs. Middle Tennessee State University football game. The university that receives the most blood donations for the American Red Cross will be recognized during the game Friday night (Nov. 17) at Houchens Industries-L.T. Smith Stadium. WKU won the competition last year.

Anyone interested in donating blood can visit www.wku.edu/givered to make an appointment and find details about parking on those days. The university has reserved parking for community members traveling to campus to donate. While donors are encouraged making an appointment, walk-in donations are also accepted.

Contact: Laura Johnson, (270) 745-5795 or laura.johnson@wku.edu
