The American Red Cross, the Boston Red Sox, and BIDMC have had a partnership for several years to encourage blood donations in New England. It is called "
Blood Donor of the Game" and honors a person in New England has donated blood. Winners receive two tickets to a designated game at Fenway Park, a special commemorative souvenir and a photograph, as well as special recognition.
The 2009 version of the program was announced at today's pregame ceremony. Here's a picture of Donna M. Morrisey, Director of Public Relations and Corporate Affairs for the Northeast Division of the ARC Blood Services; Jane Matlaw, BIDMC's Director of Community Affairs; and Guanah Davis, CEO of the Massachusetts Region of the ARC Blood Services.
I also caught this picture of Red Sox Manager Terry Francona, celebrating his birthday with two young fans at the park.
