Corinthians to host 50th Sangue Corinthiano drive at Neo Química Arena | OneFootball

Corinthians is getting ready to hold the 50th edition of the Sangue Corinthiano Campaign. Organized by the club’s Cultural Department and Social Responsibility Department, the initiative will take place on August 7 and 8, from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., in the East Stand of Neo Química Arena.

The program will include other activities in addition to the traditional blood donation. Participants will be able to register as voluntary bone marrow donors with REDOME, receive vaccines, take part in the hair donation campaign carried out in partnership with Cabelegria, and bring children to the Kids Space.

The event will also set aside a special moment to honor the Brabas. Former Corinthians players will be present, while fans will be able to see up close the trophies won by the women’s team in the 2025 Brazilian Championship and Copa Libertadores.

To take part in the campaign, it will be necessary to schedule in advance through the project’s official website. Information about when bookings will open will be announced later on the official Sangue Corinthiano Campaign channels.

Volunteers should also check in advance whether they meet the established criteria for blood donation before choosing their participation time.

The initiative reaches its 50th edition after more than 18 years of history. The most recent campaign took place in April, also at Neo Química Arena, and ended with 971 blood bags collected.

Considering that a single bag can help provide care for up to four people, the last edition had the potential to benefit 3,844 lives. Over the previous 49 actions, the project says it has helped save more than 420,000 people.

Currently, the Sangue Corinthiano Campaign holds three editions per year. Neo Química Arena is often used as the central hub for the mobilizations, taking advantage of the strength of the supporters to expand the reach of the solidarity actions.

The project, however, is not limited to the capital of São Paulo. Campaigns are also held in other cities. In January this year, for example, an action promoted in Santos collected 56 blood bags, with the potential to benefit up to 224 people.
