Donor challenge offers blood drives sites on campus

American Red Cross blood drives are scheduled throughout campus this month as part of the 14th annual IU Blood Donor Challenge, where alumni chapters, student organizations and other groups compete to raise the most units of blood.

 The competition began on Sept. 7 and runs through Oct. 22.

The group that raises the most units will be recognized during an on-field presentation at the IU vs. Iowa football game on Nov. 6.
