On Friday, December 2nd, the "2nd ANTLERS BUSINESS CLUB Blood Drive at the Clubhouse" was held in front of the Kashima Antlers Clubhouse. This event was held as part of the ANTLERS BUSINESS CLUB's philosophy sponsorship activities (*), with the cooperation of the Ibaraki Red Cross Blood Center. This was the second blood drive, following the one held on Saturday, November 5th, during the 2022 Meiji Yasuda J1 League Section 34 match against Gamba Osaka. The purpose of this event was again to support the securing of blood donors, whose numbers have decreased due to the impact of the new coronavirus infection.





On the day of the event, registration started at 10 AM, and many general participants, as well as club staff, attended.

Vice President Suzuki also took the initiative to participate and donate blood.

Those who donated blood received an eco-bag with the "ANTLERS BUSINESS CLUB" logo, specially produced for the "Blood Drive at the Clubhouse."

The goodwill (= blood donations) collected from approximately 50 people at the clubhouse on that day accounted for about 20-25% of the blood delivered to medical institutions in Ibaraki Prefecture in one day. This blood will be used for approximately 3,000 patients facing life-threatening situations, such as those undergoing treatment for cancer or leukemia, or those experiencing massive bleeding due to traffic accidents or childbirth. ANTLERS BUSINESS CLUB will continue to carry out activities aimed at contributing to the community and society. (*) What are philosophy sponsorship activities? ANTLERS BUSINESS CLUB allocates a portion of its membership fees as "philosophy sponsorship funds" for activities aimed at contributing to the community and society.
