Annual UC Blood Drive Scheduled for Feb. 2-6
The winter months are the time of year when blood donations are often down, and Hoxworth Blood Center counts on the University of Cincinnati to help keep a safe level of available blood products for those in need.
The annual UC Blood Drive is scheduled for Monday, Feb. 2, through Friday, Feb. 6, from 10:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. daily. It will be held in Tangeman University Center (TUC). And back by popular demand, every donor will receive a free $5 Chipotle gift card.
Schedule an appointment by calling 513-451-0910 or visit www.hoxworth.org/uc.
