Summarised from 2 outlets · 3 reports · Updated 6 Nov, 21:02 · Archive

British YouTube personalities Josh and Jase hosted a blood drive at Michigan State University as part of a Big Ten competition.

British YouTube personalities Josh and Jase visited Michigan State University on Thursday to host a blood drive at the Kellogg Center. The event, which ran from 11:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., is part of the Big Ten 'We Give Blood Challenge'. The Big Ten school that receives the most blood donations will win a $1 million grant from Abbott for student and campus community health.

The pair emphasised the importance of using their platform for good. 'There's no point in having a platform if you're not gonna use it for good,' they said. 'You might not think you're gonna need blood right now, but any point, any time, any day you could be on the receiving end of it.' The YouTube personalities visited ahead of Saturday's rivalry football game between Michigan State and the University of Michigan.

Donors unable to attend the on-campus event can participate in the Michigan State versus Michigan blood donation challenge. Blood donations made anywhere in the United States through November 8 count towards the competition. Donations can be recorded online at bigten.org/abbott or by texting 'GIVE BLOOD' to 222-688.
