San
Francisco 49ers and BCP Team Up to Help Save Lives
 For
the third year in a row, the San Francisco 49ers and Blood Centers of the
Pacific are teaming up to increase much-needed blood donations for
Northern California hospitals and their patients.
In past years,
players Jerry Rice and Kevin Gogan have championed the cause of blood
donations and this year, Defensive End, Charles Haley, has volunteered his
time. Blood donation has a personal importance to Charles, as his
daughter, Brianna, had leukemia. During “49er Days” in January, the
49ers will have scoreboard announcements during games about the need for blood donations
and will send out joint press releases with BCP about the
need for blood, especially critical in January.
While they
might not be Super Bowl champions this year, the San Francisco 49ers are
still champions of blood donations and heroes to Bay area patients.
