***UPDATE*** The blood drive results are in. Together, we collected 401 units of blood! That's 51 units more than the goal and the highest total in "Aztecs for Life" history! Well done San Diego! Did you know that 1 pint of donated blood can save up to 3 lives? Our own Karthik Venkataraman and "Buddy the Blood Drop" are working hard at the San Diego State University "Aztecs for Life" Blood Drive. This drive is nearly full, but to find a place to donate, go to redcross.org. Donate... and save lives. It's really that simple! #TEGNA #CBS8 #WorkingForYou

Let's make sure San Diego families have the nutrition they need! We're working with Jacobs & Cushman San Diego Food Bank for the 14th annual Summer Food Drive. Just go to any local Albertsons, Vons, or Pavilions and add a $5 "hunger bag" at checkout. That donation will pay for a variety of the Food Bank’s “most needed” food items to nourish local families and children, including nonperishable food items like pasta and canned vegetables. #TEGNA #CBS8 #WorkingForYou
