GIVE A PINT, GET A PINT!
Be Santa’s MVP this season—donate a pint of blood and receive a voucher for a Well Cocktail, Domestic Draft Beer, or 6 oz. House Wine.*
Talk about a little holiday spirit.

BONUS GIFT: Every successful donor will also receive a $25 Gecko’s gift card.

So don't forget your ugliest sweater, grab your favorite elves, and join us for a day full of blood-donor cheer. Together, we’ll fill hearts (and blood banks) faster than Santa fills stockings.
