Every summer during July 15- July 21, Champaign Central High School and Urbana High School compete in the Battle of the Bands Summer High School Challenge. Each band competes to collect the most blood donations at our Urbana donor center.

In addition to saving lives, each band that collects 20+ donations will earn grant money for their school band. Every additional donation, earn more grant money for the schools.

Help your school beat the competition and save lives! Donate blood at the Urbana Donor Center and credit your favorite high school band.
