Battle Of The Badges Blood Drive
By Jackawa Jackson | January 28, 2009
The morning of January 28 2009 began Long Beach Fire Departments involvement in the Red Cross Battle of the Badges blood drive. Members from the police department were also contributing.
The Battle of the Badges is an opportunity for all badge carrying personnel, including friends and family, to positively impact our community by competing in a friendly competition to see who can donate the most blood and ultimately save the most lives.
Blood supplies typically fall to critically low levels during the winter months. We can have
a substantial impact on the availability of blood for accident victims, cancer patients, premature babies and burn patients.
*The agencies with the most presenting donors and the most presenting donors per capita will win awards. All presenting donors will receive a Battle of the Badges commemorative t-shirt and a voucher for two Los Angeles Clippers game tickets*.
