Dunkin' Donuts & American Red Cross Give Patriots Playoff Tickets to Four Lucky Donors

Four lucky Patriots fans won tickets to this weekend's playoff game at Gillette Stadium thanks to the Dunkin' Donuts and American Red Cross kick-off blood donation event held on Thursday, January 2 where each presenting donor was entered to win. The blood donation event was a kick-off to the Dunkin' Donuts/American Red Cross "Give a Pint, Get a Pound" campaign to help increase the blood supply and raise awareness about the need for blood.
 

For the seventh year in a row, Dunkin’ Donuts and the American Red Cross are teaming up for the “Give a Pint, Get a Pound” campaign, which provides a coupon for a free pound of Dunkin’ Donuts coffee* to all presenting donors at Red Cross blood drives in Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York and Vermont during the month of January. The campaign is in celebration of National Blood Donor Month and helps increase awareness about the need for blood. The campaign has achieved great success during the past six years as Dunkin’ Donuts has provided more than 520,000 pounds of coffee to presenting donors, and if one donation may help save up to three lives, Dunkin Donuts has potentially helped more than 1.5 million patients. Donated blood is used to help accident victims, trauma patients, transplant recipients, and those receiving treatment for life-threatening illnesses.
