Thank you very much for your continued support of OSAKA BLUTEON.
OSAKA BLUTEON supports the "Life Pass Project," in which sports teams and organizations based in Osaka participate, and we will be conducting an arena blood drive at our home game (against Hiroshima Thunders) on Sunday, February 15, as follows.

Osaka Evessa, which is holding a game on the same day (co-hosted) on Sunday, February 15, also supports the "Life Pass Project." We ask for your cooperation in donating blood to pass the "Life Pass" across the boundaries of sports.

In addition, our team character, "PAPPINESS," will be appointed to the "Osaka Red Cross Blood Center Blood Donation Connection Team" as part of the "Life Pass Project" in which sports teams and organizations participate. The inauguration ceremony will be held on Sunday, February 15, the same day as the arena blood drive.
After the inauguration, together with the blood donation character "Kenketsu-chan," the character plans to engage in various activities, such as participating in blood donation events and appearing in awareness videos to convey the importance of blood donation, to help many people deepen their understanding of and interest in blood donation.

What is the "Life Pass Project"?

This activity aims to raise awareness of blood donation by comparing the process of blood from donation to reaching patients in need of transfusion to the act of passing a ball in sports.
It is an initiative filled with the desire to deliver a "Life Pass" to patients who need blood transfusions for medical treatment or surgery, and to increase the number of people who think about "others" by expanding the circle of blood donation.
