Back for its second year, Abbott and the Big Ten Conference are hosting the We Give Blood Drive competition to entice students, alumni, fans, and community members to rally around their Big Ten school to donate blood, save lives, and address the country's ongoing critical blood shortage.
From August 27 to December 5, anyone eligible to donate blood can do so anywhere, anytime in the U.S. to count for their school. The school with the most donations at the end of the competition will receive $1 million to advance student or community health.
New this year, everyone who donates or attempts to donate blood throughout the competition will receive an exclusive, limited-edition, Homefield-designed T-shirt specific to their school. To receive the shirt:
1. Show up to donate 2. Submit your donation (or attempt to donate) at BigTen.Org/Abbott or by texting DONATE to 222688 (ABBOTT). 3. Click the link sent to your email 4. Use your redemption code 5. Your shirt will be shipped to the address of your choice.
Last year, the University of Nebraska won, and is using the funds to advance student health on campus. The University of Maryland is competing this year and will host several blood drives on campus and in the surrounding area throughout the competition.

Throughout the weekend, Festival-goers can expect to see more than 800 decorated trees, wreaths and gingerbread houses designed by area businesses, community groups, schools and individuals. They are truly a forest of creative expression, often referencing trends from the current year, like popular songs, movies or personalities. Attendees can expect to see lots of lights, handcrafted ornaments, and elaborate tree skirts as well.
Santa will be on hand throughout the weekend to discuss holiday wish lists and pose for photos. Amusement rides, games and crafts promise to keep young elves engaged, and there is live entertainment throughout the three-day event.
