June 2, 2024 – Fresno County Sheriff’s Office officials report that the 23rd annual Battle of the Badges Blood Drive kicked off on Friday and runs throughout the entire month of June.
This is a friendly competition between more than 20 local first responder agencies. Summer is typically when donations are down, so your valuable blood is needed to increase supplies to help save the lives of those who experience medical emergencies.
Our FSO Battle of the Badges Mobile Blood Drive event takes place on Wednesday, June 5th, outside the North Annex Jail (Merced and M Streets) from 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
If it’s more convenient, you may donate at one of the many Central California Blood Center locations. We hope you, your family and friends mention you’re doing it on behalf of the Fresno County Sheriff’s Office to help us gain points and wrestle the trophy away from the Fresno Police Department.
