First Annual Corporate Challenge
iHeartMedia to offer two $5,000 Marketing to Businesses that Save the Most Lives
Sarasota, FL – iHeartMedia is helping SunCoast Blood Bank (SCBB) meet the daily challenge of keeping the blood supply readily available, by sponsoring the First Annual Corporate Challenge. During the month of February, one nonprofit and one business that can register the most blood and platelet donors at SCBB will win a $5,000 marketing package from the local iHeartMedia station of their choice.
SCBB relies on blood and platelet donors to help save lives in our community every day. Less than five percent of the population donates one hundred percent of the blood products vital to sustaining the lives on critically ill and injured patients.
Visit scbb.org to register your nonprofit or business at time in January or February, but all donations must be made in February. Participating businesses can recruit others to donate blood or platelets on behalf on their business or nonprofit, at any SCBB donor center or bloodmobile. Each blood or platelet donation will count as a “vote”. The winner will be notified by March 6th, 2015.
