Donate Blood, Get a Free Bears Shirt At Romeoville Library

ROMEOVILLE, IL — Giving blood can give you something in return, at least at Romeoville's upcoming blood drive. Participants in the Romeoville Library's blood donation drive on Wednesday will receive a voucher for a free Chicago Bears shirt.

From 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday, the White Oak Library District's Romeoville branch, at 201 W. Normantown Rd., will partner with Versiti to host a blood drive. Versiti is a blood bank and medical research facility with locations throughout Chicagoland.

Those who participate in the blood drive will receive a voucher to redeem a free long-sleeve Chicago Bears t-shirt. Participants are asked to schedule their appointment at versiti.org or sign up at the library's adult services desk.

The Bears t-shirts will not be limited to donors at the library event, however. Anyone who gives blood at a Versiti location through Oct. 1 will be able to receive a voucher for the t-shirt, according to the non-profit. For Versiti's Chicago-area locations, click here.
