Pennsauken’s first responders will once again complete to see who can recruit the most eligible blood donors in the community during an American Red Cross “Battle of the Badges” blood drive on Thursday, Jan. 19, 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. at the Pennsauken Country Club, 3800 Haddonfield Rd.

Presenting donors will have the opportunity to cast a vote for Pennsauken’s police or fire departments, with the winning agency earning a plaque and bragging rights; they will also receive a free Red Cross t-shirt while supplies last. In addition, all presenting donors will receive a voucher for a free medium hot coffee and wake up wrap from Dunkin.

Appointments are encouraged; walk-ins will be accommodated as time and space allow. To schedule an appointment, scan the QR Code that accompanies this article. Donors can also visit RedCrossBlood.org and search by zip code and the date, Jan. 19, or call 1-800-REDCROSS.
