Green Bay Packers Announce Give Back Community Blood Drive

Posted on 8-18-2022

GREEN BAY, Wis. (Aug. 18, 2022) – Tackle the need for blood and give back with the Green Bay Packers. Join the American Red Cross for the Green Bay Packers Give Back Community Blood Drive Monday, August 29th, from 7am to 7pm, at Lambeau Field in the Johnsonville Tailgate Village — located in the east parking lot outside the American Family Insurance Gate.

Free parking will be available in lot 3 off Lombardi Avenue. Appointments are strongly encouraged. Walk-ins will be taken as space allows.  All presenting donors can enter into a raffle for a chance to win great prizes from the Packers and receive a free giveaway item, while supplies last.

The Red Cross has an ongoing need for lifesaving blood this summer. Donors of all blood types – especially type O – are urged to make an appointment to give now.

“We are tremendously grateful to the Green Bay Packers and for all blood donors who continuously roll up a sleeve to give blood,” said Steve Hansen, Executive Director for the Northeast Wisconsin Chapter of the American Red Cross. “The need for blood is constant and we look forward to helping the community maintain a stable blood supply.”

Blood and platelet donors can save time at their next donation by using RapidPass ® to complete their pre-
donation reading and health history questionnaire online, on the day of their donation, before arriving at the blood drive. To get started, follow the instructions at RedCrossBlood.org/RapidPass or use the Blood Donor App.

Get in the game and give blood with the Red Cross!
