SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. (January 17, 2025) — Saratoga Casino Hotel is teaming up with the American Red Cross to host a blood drive. Members of the local community are urged to join dozens of Saratoga Casino Hotel team members to give blood on Monday, January 20 from noon to 6pm inside the hotel ballroom.
January is National Blood Donor Month, which has been observed since 1970 to recognize the importance of giving blood and platelets while also honoring those who donate. Thanks to the ongoing partnership between the American Red Cross and the NFL, all donors during the month of January will be entered to win a trip for two to Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans.
Schedule an appointment to give blood by using the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org, calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or enabling the Blood Donor Skill on any Alexa Echo device.
“We’re proud to host two blood drives every year,” said Alex Tucker, Chief Operating Officer at Saratoga Casino Hotel. “There is always a need and we’re happy to open our doors to help. The response from the community, as well our team members continues to be incredible year after year.”
