Give A Little (Blood) Get A Lot

The Blood Center of Wisconsin has two great promos going on right now in an effort to increase blood donations. Both of them include getting in free to an event - Wisconsin State Fair or a Brewer's game.

State Fair Promo

If you donate blood at one of our donor centers now through August 11, you’ll give the gift of life to up to three people. And as a special thank you for donating during this time of high need, you’ll score a free one-day admission to the State Fair — one of the most family-friendly and affordable entertainment experiences of Wisconsin’s summer season.
Call 1-877-BE-A-HERO (1-877-232-4376) or 1-414-937-6199 to make an appointment. Be sure to mention "Summer" to get your free ticket.

Or make an appointment online at one of their donor centers. Type "Summer" in the comment box on the confirmation page during your online registration.

In addition to the Wisconsin State Fair ticket, you'll also receive an extra 200 recognition points in our Giving for Life program for your summer donation. It's another way to thank you for your life-saving contribution. If you have questions, or would like more information about the Giving for Life program, call 1-877-BE-A-HERO (1-877-232-4376) or 414-937-6199.

Big League Blood Drive

In baseball, you have to be a closer to get a save. But most of us can get a save without ever pitching a ball – by giving blood at the 11th Annual Big League Blood Drive!  Join us Tuesday, August 28 & Thursday, August 30 as we partner with the Crew to save lives in our community.

As a thank you, all attempting donors will receive a voucher for a pair of tickets to a game later this season!  Donors can choose from:

  • Tuesday, Sept. 11 vs Atlanta

  • Monday, Oct. 1 vs. San Diego

Tuesday, August 28

7 a.m. - 7 p.m. Miller Park 1 Brewers Way Milwaukee, WI

Thursday, August 309 a.m. - 2 p.m. Location TBD

• Free parking
• Childcare provided

Call 1-877-BE-A-HERO (1-877-232-4376) or 1-414-937-6199 to make an appointment or make an appointment online.

City Lights Cans Water. Why its better than bottles.

You may have seen the new trend for packaged water with brands like Liquid Death. Now a local brewery, City Lights Brewery , is getting in on the act. Except its not just an act, its not some fad, there are reasons to can vs. bottle water. Good reasons.

Make Men's Health Month About You

The month of November is (one of the) Men's Health Month(s), popularized by the Movember movement. (June is another recognized annual event but since it is November now, November it is.) It's a great foundation, it has been successful and is highly rated for its impact. But, one thing I see with the movement is that while they speak about men's health to the participants, I feel the participants themselves promote it outwardly rather than inward, at them. I personally fell victim to that selfsame issue, but no longer. As of this November, I am taking care of myself.
