– To maintain a safe blood supply, Versiti Blood Center Michigan needs 3,600 donors every week.

– Blood on the shelves TODAY will save lives TOMORROW

Versiti is offering a “Ride to Save Lives” Sweepstakes to all donors 18 yrs. during the month of June. Donors will automatically be entered to win a 2023 Harley-Davidson Low Rider S (valued at 18k ), and there will be 2 winners randomly selected around July 5th.
