San Antonio Spurs Offer Suite Tickets for Blood Donors in March

Community blood drives aim to boost donations during spring break season.

Published on Mar. 5, 2026

The South Texas Blood & Tissue is partnering with the San Antonio Spurs to encourage blood donations during March. Anyone who donates at select community drives will be entered to win two suite tickets to the Spurs' March 19 game against the Indiana Pacers. Donors will also receive a Spurs T-shirt, a $10 Rudy's BBQ voucher, and a weekender bag as a thank-you.

Why it matters

Blood donations often drop during spring break as schools close and families travel, but the need for blood remains constant. The incentives are meant to both thank donors and encourage the community to help maintain a strong blood supply for local hospitals, which is crucial for patients like 11-year-old Lyric who requires regular blood transfusions to battle Sickle cell disease.
