In 2018, the American Red Cross and the National C.O.P.S. partnered in an effort to support the nation’s blood supply by encouraging their members to host blood drives and donate blood. National Blue Blood Drives takes place during the month of January, with many drives occurring on or around January 9th, to coincide with Law Enforcement Appreciation Day (LEAD). January is typically a difficult month for the Red Cross, with fewer blood drives being held in communities. This is a great opportunity for the C.O.P.S. family and the law enforcement community to join forces to support the blood supply.
Challenge your friends (or anyone for that matter) to a friendly competition! Who will win the battle to do the most social good for your community?
Put your virtual blood drive campaign against one or even multiple other campaigns to see who can recruit more blood donors for the American Red Cross.
