Blood donation meets a constant, critical need. Every donation can help up to three patients—people facing surgeries, cancer treatment, traumatic injuries, or chronic conditions that require regular transfusions. These aren't abstract statistics. They're neighbors, parents, children, and friends whose lives depend on the generosity of healthy donors. 

The Blood Battle harnesses the natural energy of university rivalries and redirects it toward something significant. It's competition with purpose, where Bulldogs and Golden Eagles prove that the fiercest contests can also be the most compassionate. 

Both communities are invited to roll up their sleeves at scheduled blood drives throughout the season. Donations can be made through Versiti Blood Center of Indiana for Butler supporters and Versiti Blood Center of Wisconsin for Marquette participants. 

Visit the Versiti websites to find drive locations and schedule your appointment. Whether you bleed Butler blue or Marquette blue and gold, you're helping save lives.
