American Red Cross Blood Drive Partners with Music Saves Lives - Scotts Valley

In June, the American Red Cross Northern California Blood Services Region and Music Saves Lives will team up to hold blood drives with special appeal for concert-goers who want to make a difference in their communities. 

The blood drives, which will be open to the public, offer participants the unique opportunity to help save a life by donating a pint of their blood.  And as an added bonus (for music fans), all presenting blood donors at these drives will receive a VIP concert voucher,* which can be redeemed at the Music Saves Lives booth at one of two upcoming music festivals (both at Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View).

At the Vans Warped Tour show on July 2, the voucher can be exchanged for access to an exclusive meet-and-greet area.  At the Rockstar Mayhem Festival on July 10, the voucher can be used to access the special Music Saves Lives riser stage.  Please note: The voucher is not a concert ticket, and users must purchase their own entry ticket.
