There is always an urgent need for blood donations in the Capital Region. Now if you give blood, you will be rewarded with a delicious pint of Stewart's ice cream or gelato. It's that time of year again for the "Give a Pint, Get a Pint" program.

What is the "Give a Pint, Get a Pint" Program?

This is the seventh year that Stewart's Shops has teamed up with the American Red Cross to help increase blood donations in Upstate New York. For the entire month of June, if you donate blood in any of the participating twenty-six counties in Upstate New York, you will be treated to a free pint of your favorite Stewart's ice cream or gelato. You will get a voucher that can be redeemed at any Stewart's location.
