Pint for a Pint Blood Drive at Central California Blood Center

Give a pint and get a pint!

The annual Pint for a Pint Blood Drive kicks off Friday, July 22 and Saturday, July 23. Join ABC30 as we Take Action Together and donate blood!

According to Central California Blood Center, 1 in 7 people entering the hospital will require blood. One pint of blood can save three lives!

Donate a pint of blood and get a free pint of Baskin Robbins ice cream. You will cool off from the summer heat while helping the community. Central California Blood Center needs to collect 5,000 pints of blood a month to meet the needs of our community.

This year's kick-off includes five different locations where you can stop by and donate. No appointments are needed to donate during the kick-off.

You can also donate the entire month of August and receive a coupon for a pint of ice cream.

On Friday, all Fresno locations will be open from 9 am until 6 pm, while the Visalia location will be open from 7 am until 4 pm.

On Saturday, the Visalia location and the Jenny Eller Donor Center in Northwest Fresno will be open from 7 am until 4 pm, while the other Fresno locations will be open from 8 am until 5 pm.
