First Responders Lead Blood Drive | Fayetteville Arkansas News

Fayetteville’s first responders just crushed their sixth annual Boots, Badges and Bandages blood drive—competing to see who can rally the most donors and keep the Community Blood Center stocked. For volunteer Kristen Richardson, who once needed 198 units of blood in 2003, it’s deeply personal: blood shortages hit hardest for rare types like O positive, which is currently in short supply. This isn’t just a community event—it’s a lifesaver. Big thanks to the crews for stepping up; one donation can change someone’s life.
