United Blood Services is offering the ultimate prize package to one lucky winner: two tickets to the Super Bowl, airfare voucher and accommodations.
Donors will automatically be entered to win between Nov. 10 and Jan. 10.
The opportunity to donate and have a chance at the grand prize will be available in Detroit Lakes on Dec. 20 from 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. in the Detroit Lakes National Guard Armory.
“We’re excited to offer this giveaway particularly at this time of year when donations can decrease but the need never goes away,” said Jennifer Bredahl, regional donor recruitment director of United Blood Services. “We encourage new and existing donors to participate in this fun promotion to ultimately help area patients who need blood prior to and through the holiday season.”
Nov. 10 through Jan. 10, each Monday a finalist will be drawn from the week prior. The weekly finalists will be notified individually and announced on the United Blood Services-Dakota Facebook page. The nine weekly finalists will be put into a final drawing, which will occur Jan. 12.
