After over twenty years of having a blood drive as part of the Chicago Auto Show (the nation’s largest auto show!), space limitations due to Covid were not making it possible for Versiti to collect blood at the 2021 event. But we at A Pint For Kim teamed up with The Hamilton Collection and Versiti to figure out a way to still be at the show, as our local hospitals rely on the nearly 2,000 pints collected at this event! We were excited to announce that a collaboration was born!
Starting in July 2021, A Pint For Kim became a part of the Chicago Auto Show!! Moving forward, APFK will be a part of the auto show when it normally runs each February (making it a perfect chance to donate blood and be eligible again for our annual May event!) The Hamilton Collection came out to the show, too, and brought some of their cars. Also, ONE LUCKY AUTO SHOW BLOOD DONOR and ONE LUCKY VERSITI VOLUNTEER won a ride in the only Bugatti Chiron in the region! We were grateful for the chance to be at this event, and we look forward to future years!
