Meet Special Patriots Guests & Help Patients in Need: Patriot Place Blood Drive 12/15

Calling all Patriots fans/Patriot Place neighbors! The New England Patriots Charitable Foundation will host the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute/Brigham and Women’s Hospital Blood Mobile for a public blood drive on Sunday, December 15, 9 AM-3 PM at Patriot Place (across from Davio’s Steakhouse). Donors can meet and take photos with special guests – including Patriots alumni, mascot Pat Patriot, and Patriots cheerleaders – and will also receive a Patriots gift bag. Please schedule an appointment in advance by emailing BloodDonor@partners.org with the subject heading “Patriots” and two preferred donation times. The Patriots ask that blood donors and other friends also drop off a new, unwrapped toy at the Patriots Activity Center (across from Saga Hibachi). Patriots players will personally deliver all donated toys to children in need at upcoming holiday events.

Questions about eligibility or the blood donation process? Please call the Kraft Family Blood Donor Center at Dana-Farber and Brigham and Women’s at 617-632-3206 or visit www.dana-farber.org/blooddonation. Thank you for making a life-saving difference.
