Support Vitalant & First Responders At 2025 Battle Of The Badges

The Butte Brewing Company at 265 E. Galena will be the site of another crucial blood drive through our friends at Vitalant in conjunction with our incredible first responders here in Southwest Montana. The "Battle of the Badges" blood drive is coming up and we need your help to fill up the available donation spots. Here is what Vitalant wants you to know.

"We are excited to introduce our Battle of the Badges Blood Drive coming March 13th and 14th of 2025. Really it is all about getting people to support our first responders in supporting our community in helping to save lives. We are pairing badge carrying lifesavers throughout Silver Bow County with blood donors to ensure that we have a steady supply of blood ready for our community hospital patients when they need it most. Vitalant serves 30+ Transfusions Services Hospitals in our area and we need your help to overcome critical blood shortages. This Battle is a fun, friendly competition between our badges to see who can encourage the most community blood donations. We will have goodies to give away for donors, a raffle and a free pint of beer from the Butte Brewery for your life saving donation. We hope you can join us and be a part of the 2025 Battle of the Badges."

It all starts with a call! Please call/text or email: Shawn Muffich directly at (406) 498-1206. Shawn's email address is smuffich@vitalant.org. Please get in contact with Shawn for more information or an appointment.

Vitalant is the only non-profit blood bank providing blood products to our local hospitals.
