Hoxworth Offering Free Zoo Tickets to Blood Donors
Havent seen your favorite furry friend or slithery snake this year at the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden? Dont worry; weve got you covered!
Hoxworth Blood Center is teaming up with the nationally acclaimed zoo to help encourage the community to save local lives.
Donate blood during Zoo Week, July 11-July 16, and take home two free tickets to the Cincinnati Zoo.
The summer months bring about an increase in blood usage and unfortunately a decrease in donations, says Alecia Lipton, Hoxworth spokesperson. We are thrilled to partner with the Cincinnati Zoo at such a critical time and hope to see many donors in the next the week.
Donate at one of Hoxworths eight convenient locations:
Anderson
Blue Ash
Central
Downtown
Ft. Mitchell
Mason
Tri-County
Western Hills
Hoxworth is always in need of lifesaving blood. Schedule an appointment by calling (513) 451-0910 or visit www.hoxworth.org.
