Save Lives with the Reno Aces and United Blood Services (UBS)

June 12, 2018

Here is a link to the original story on the team's website.

Reno, Nev. –  Reno Aces fans can join their favorite ballclub in saving lives this summer at several United Blood Services blood drives throughout our community. During these select drives, blood donors can receive Aces merchandise including T-shirts, hats, water bottles and more. Photo opportunities with Aces mascot Archie and/or the street team will also be available.

“We couldn’t be more excited to partner with United Blood Services this summer,” said Communications Manager Jackson Gaskins. “My life was saved because of blood donors and through these drives, the Aces and United Blood Services have the opportunity to save many more in our Northern Nevada Community.”

“The summer is a very challenging time to collect blood due to many reasons so we are thankful for the tremendous support from the Reno Aces to help boost our community’s blood supply together,” said Scott Edward, Donor Marketing and Communications Director for United Blood Services. “Every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood, so these blood drives are a big part of our efforts to meet patient needs.”

To schedule a donation appointment, please visit bloodhero.com or call 1-800-696-4484. Donors can search for blood drives at bloodhero.com using the sponsor codes provided below. Walk-ins are also welcome.
