Interested in winning tickets to next years Super Bowl AND helping those in crisis?
The American Red Cross and the National Football League are teaming up for National Blood Donor Month.
A great way to ‘give’ right now is to sign up to donate blood and plasma. When you do, you could earn a chance to win a trip to next year’s Super Bowl.

2020 was already a tough year, and now the recent bombing in Nashville has left businesses and those impacted in even more difficult circumstances.
Here are some options to help:
OPTION 1: Box 55 Association supplies emergency personnel with food and water on major accident scenes. Their volunteer pool is small, and they are open to assistance - either in-person or donations. http://www.box55.org
OPTION 2: The homeless population can use assistance via Cold Weather Nashville. Clothing donations are also accepted. https://www.coldweathernashville.com/help
OPTION 3: The Nashville Neighbors Fund caters to long-term needs by providing resources to local nonprofits that offer vital services to those in need. You can provide help at http://www.cfmt.org/neighbors.
