RECAP: Aztecs for Life Blood Drive 2022
Thank you San Diego! Because of you the Aztecs for Life Blood Drive with CBS 8, The CW San Diego, SDSU and the Red Cross had a fantastic turnout at the November event.
The 2022 drive collected a total of 339 units of blood which can help save the lives up more than 1,000 people in need!
However, there is still a critical need for blood in our community and there are many other opportunities to schedule an appointment to donate.
Blood drives are an essential service providing a medical necessity to hospital patients. Donors of all blood types are urged to help overcome an emergency blood shortage.

Due to the overwhelming support of the San Diego community, all reservations were booked for the "Aztecs for Life" blood drive at Viejas Arena on the campus of SDSU.
