Boston Spartans | B1G Blood Drive

Project Description

The Boston Spartans are supporting a virtual blood drive to occur during the period of Oct. 19, 2025 through Nov. 1, 2025.  All Boston Spartans are encouraged to donate blood during this time and register the donation for the Abbott Big Ten Blood Challenge (https://bigten.org/abbott/). We invite friends and family of the Boston Spartans to donate to our virtual drive as well. By donating blood, each person will increase the chances of the Spartans winning the Big Ten Blood Challenge and collecting the $1 million to be used for student or community health. Every registered donation helps patients in need and counts as a vote for MSU.

Boston Spartans and their friends and family members can donate at a convient location of their choice. Each donor will need to fill out the required form on the Big Ten Website (https://bigten.org/abbott/) to help MSU one-up the other Big Ten schools and win big. As a thank you, each donor will get a limited-edition Homefield Spartan T-shirt (while supplies last). To receive your shirt, have a picture taken of you donating blood.
