Donate blood for a chance to win.

SAN ANTONIO - Everyone, including our donors, enjoys having a good time and in South Texas, we have a tradition of it. Dating back to 1891, Fiesta® has been long celebrated and 2013 is no different. With this in mind, the South Texas Blood & Tissue Center (STBTC) will be giving away a Fiesta® package to two of our lucky donors during March.
 
All presenting donors throughout the month of March will be automatically entered to win one of two Fiesta® packages, which include a weekend stay in a downtown San Antonio hotel and tickets to Fiesta® events.
