Over the first 21 years of Drive for Life, more than 40,000 blood donations have made an impact on up to 121,000 lives.
“The Denver Broncos are proud of our partnership with Vitalant, who plays a key role in the Broncos mission of improving lives in our community,” said Denver Broncos Executive Director of Community Development Allie Engelken. “Drive for Life has had an incredible impact through blood donations collected over the last 21 years, and remains one of the longest-standing community traditions that our team participates in.”
