Starting December 18 and lasting through January 11, 2010, NYBC will make a $10 contribution for every pint of blood donated using the FDNY group number, 4FDNY. At the conclusion of the program, the total amount of money donated will be evenly split among three charities;
New York City Bravest Scholarship Fund
New York Police and Fire Widows and Childrens Benefit Fund
Paramedic Carlos R. Lillo Memorial Scholarship Fund.
Blood donors must mention the FDNY group number "4FDNY" at the time of donation and the blood donation must take place at one of NYBCs New York or New Jersey donor centers or blood drive locations. This opportunity is available to any member of the public wishing to donate blood.
