American Red Cross will be at Nebraska Innovation Campus on Friday, October 10 from 10:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. The University of Nebraska is once again teaming up with Abbott and the Big Ten Conference for the We Give Blood challenge — a national campaign aimed at addressing critical blood shortages and encouraging young adults to become donors. From Aug. 27 to Dec. 5, all blood donors are encouraged to donate blood and log their donation to count toward Nebraska’s total. The school with the most verified donations will receive $1 million to support student or community health initiatives.
Join the challenge:
1. Donate blood at any blood drive or blood center between Aug. 27 and Dec. 5.
2. Log your donation (with your name, photo or confirmation email) at BigTen.org/Abbott or by texting DONATE to 222688 (ABBOTT).
3. Track progress in real time at BigTen.org/Abbott

The blood drive will take place in The Club, the event space connected to The Mill Coffee & Bistro.
