Please join us for the NEWS 8 Kyle Kraska Celebration of Heroes Blood Drive and Food Drive benefiting the American Red Cross and the Jacobs & Cushman San Diego & North County Food Banks on Tuesday, August 18 from 8am to 8pm at Pechanga Arena.

The event will collect two essential community needs...blood and food, which have been drastically impacted by COVID-19.

  • Temperature checks and physical distancing will be observed.
  • The American Red Cross is testing all blood, platelet and plasma donations for COVID-19 antibodies.
  • This testing may provide critical insight into whether donors may have possibly been exposed to this coronavirus.

Every blood donor will receive a coupon for a FREE Jersey Mike’s Sub!

To donate food, drop off non-perishable foot items from the safety of your car in Pechanga Arena's parking lot or make a virtual or monetary donation at SDFoodBank.org.
