Meet Special Patriots Guests & Help Patients in Need: Patriot Place Blood Drive 12/15
Calling all Patriots fans/Patriot Place neighbors! The New England Patriots Charitable Foundation will host the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute/Brigham and Women’s Hospital Blood Mobile for a public blood drive on Sunday, December 15, 9 AM-3 PM at Patriot Place (across from Davio’s Steakhouse). Donors can meet and take photos with special guests – including Patriots alumni, mascot Pat Patriot, and Patriots cheerleaders – and will also receive a Patriots gift bag. Please schedule an appointment in advance by emailing BloodDonor@partners.org with the subject heading “Patriots” and two preferred donation times. The Patriots ask that blood donors and other friends also drop off a new, unwrapped toy at the Patriots Activity Center (across from Saga Hibachi). Patriots players will personally deliver all donated toys to children in need at upcoming holiday events.
