CAROLINA/CLEMSON BLOOD DRIVE
One of the largest blood drives in the country is held annually the week before the Carolina-Clemson football game. USC competes with Clemson in collecting blood for local hospitals and life-saving procedures. During the 2023 Blood Battle, USC collected 2,343 pints and saved 7,029 lives. Along with Clemson, we collected 7,014 pints of blood and saved 21,042 lives. The drive comes at the start of the holiday season when blood donations typically decrease. The Carolina-Clemson Blood Drive Committee is the second-largest student-run organization on USC's campus.
Roll up a sleeve and donate for the Gamecocks! One donation could save three lives!
Visit www.redcrossblood.org (use sponsor code: Gamecocks) or visit The USC Blood Battle to schedule your appointment today. All presenting donors will receive a free T-Shirt, a chance to win prizes such as signed footballs and basketballs (and perhaps a campus parking pass), or a wristband for local discounts and free food. Identification is required to donate.
Walk-ins are welcome! Additional blood drive opportunities will be offered throughout the USC campus during Blood Battle.
