Now is your chance! On Saturday, August 15th, the <a href="http://www.redcross.org/" target="_blank">American Red Cross</a> is hosting a blood drive at <a href="http://www.citizensbank.com/ballpark/" target="_blank">Citizens Bank Park</a>. Every donor will have a chance to wear a World Series ring and to have a picture taken of that very special moment.</p>
<p>1500 donors are expected, so pre-registration is recommended. <a href="http://www.pleasegiveblood.org/" target="_blank">Sign-up here</a> or call 1-800-448-3543 (1-800-GIVE LIFE).</p>
<p>Usually you get a <a href="http://static.open.salon.com/files/cookie-monster3-7769871237963363.jpg" target="_blank">tasty cookie</a> and apple juice after you donate blood, but Citizens Bank Park is taking it to a whole new level. Not only do you get your picture taken with a World Series Ring, there will also be a bunch of other giveaways, such as a collectible Phillies print, a tour of the ballpark, a ticket discount for a future Phillies game, parking, and opportunities to meet the <a href="http://weblogs.newsday.com/sports/basketball/knicks/blog/706px-Phillies_Phanatic.jpg" target="_blank">Phillie Phanatic</a> and the Phillies Ballgirls. Talk about incentives!</p>
<p>If you don&#8217;t live in the Philadelphia area, or you are unable to donate blood on Saturday, August 15th, click on <a href="https://www.givelife.org/" target="_blank">this link</a> to find a blood drive near you! Every 2 seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood, but only 5% of the eligible U.S. population donates each year. Save a life &#8211; donate today!</p>
<p>If you are unable to donate for whatever reason, there are many <a href="http://www.redcross.org/en/volunteertime" target="_blank">volunteer opportunities through The Red Cross</a>. Do something awesome for someone in need.</p>
<p>Now check out this video of the Phillie Phanatic dancing after the jump! He&#8217;s the greatest!<span id="more-1442"></span></p>
