Wake County Alumni Network: Fourth Annual NC State vs. Carolina Blood Drive

Let’s make Carolina see red again this year! NC State has never lost this annual blood drive competition among alumni of Triangle universities. Donate as a “Wolfpack fan” at one of the participating American Red Cross locations between Nov. 18 and Nov. 27. Your name will be entered to win an NC State gift basket.

The winning university will be announced during halftime at the Nov. 28 UNC vs. NC State game.

You donate blood as a walk-in or make an appointment at 800-GIVE-LIFE (448-3543) or www.givelife.org.
