The community is encouraged to attend a worthy cause on Tuesday, Feb. 25 in front of West Los Angeles Community Police Station at 1663 Butler Avenue for the American Red Cross “Battle of the Badges” Blood Drive.
The drive will take place from 9 am to 3 pm.
The Battle of the Badges began in 2007 in Southern California as an opportunity for badge carrying personnel to positively impact our community by competing in a friendly blood drive competition.
In six short years, the program has grown extraordinarily into what has become the nation’s largest and most successful law-enforcement blood drive.
This year, state, county and federal badge-carrying agencies will go head-to-head to see which can donate the most pints of blood through the American Red Cross. And while this initiative is themed and geared specifically toward the law enforcement community, the general public is strongly encouraged to participate.
To make a life saving appointment, visit www.redcrossblood.org and enter sponsor code BADGESoCal, or call 310.444.0735 to sign up.
