On November 29, Fifth Third Bank Broadway in Atlanta celebrates its month-long partnership with the American Red Cross Southern Blood Services Region when the Grinch, star of Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas! The Musical, stops by the American Red Cross donor center in Midtown Atlanta.

Throughout the month of November, the Red Cross has encouraged community members to follow the lead of one Dr. Seuss' most beloved holiday characters, the Grinch. Just as the Grinch opens his heart to give back, area donors have likewise given back by donating blood. Now, Fifth Third Bank Broadway in Atlanta and the American Red Cross invite the community to meet this holiday hero, before he steals the show on the Fox Theatre stage.

All donors who present to donate November 23 – 28, will be entered into a drawing for a 4-pack of tickets to see Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas! The Musical at the Fox Theatre. There will be one winner per location. November 1 – 28, all presenting donors will receive a $5 off coupon for tickets.
