July 23, 2026 – Madera County Sheriff’s Office officials announce 25th Annual North Valley Battle of the Badges Blood Drive will be held today.

Join us on Thursday, July 23, 2026, at the Madera Sheriff’s Headquarters!

The 25th Annual North Valley Battle of the Badges Blood Drive is near the finish line, and we need your help to make a lifesaving impact in our community.

Join us INSIDE Headquarters! We will have more donor stations available to accommodate multiple donors at a time.

Thursday, July 23, 2026
2:00 P.M. - 6:00 P.M.
Madera County Sheriff’s Office
2725 Falcon Drive, Madera

Every donation helps provide critical blood supplies to local patients and earns points for the Madera County Sheriff’s Office in the Battle of the Badges competition.

Can’t make it on July 23? You can still support Team Madera County Sheriff’s Office by donating at any Central California Blood Center location throughout the month. Be sure to tell them you’re donating on behalf of the Madera County Sheriff’s Office.

We will also be hosting at least one more mobile blood drive on Thursday, July 30 in Oakhurst. Location TBA!

Together, we can save lives, support our community, and bring the Battle of the Badges trophy home to Madera County!
