Win Brooklyn Nets Tickets Through New York Blood Center

NEW YORK, NY — The New York Blood Center (NYBC) is offering New Yorkers a chance to win tickets to the Brooklyn Nets vs. Atlanta Hawks game on April 3rd at the Barclays Center.

From March 1 through March 5, all regular blood donors at NYBC’s Brooklyn Donor Center will be entered into a daily sweepstakes, selecting five winners each day for two tickets to the game.

Platelet donors will automatically receive two tickets, and donors at NYBC’s Queens and Bronx centers are also eligible for the sweepstakes.

“Every donation truly makes a difference, and we wanted to give New Yorkers an extra reason to roll up their sleeves this March,” said Jeannie Mascolino, Vice President of Blood Operations at NYBC. “We hope this exciting promotion brings New Yorkers from across the five boroughs together to support our home team, helps replenish the blood supply at our hospitals and adds some excitement for basketball fans while supporting a critical cause.”

NYBC lost nearly 3,000 donations following a recent blizzard, significantly affecting the region’s blood supply. Officials said the center needs strong donor participation in the coming weeks to recover.

Blood donors can give every 56 days, and platelet donors may give twice per month. Recent FDA guidance expands donor eligibility. For current eligibility, visit nybc.org or call 800.688.0900.

Appointments at blood drives can be made at 1-800-933-2566 or online. Those unable to donate can still support NYBC through financial contributions or volunteering.
