But this season, if a woman wants to find their way to the Bachelor’s heart, she will have show that she has one by donating blood.

Bachelor Brad Womack will be joined by Bachelors of past seasons, as well as Bachelorettes, at blood drives across the nation this month to show their support for National Blood Donor Month.  Locations include Los Angeles, Dallas, Philadelphia, and Chicago.

Womack teamed up with the Red Cross in hopes that this initiative will inspire others to donate as well.  And he is not the only one lending a helping hand.  Road Scholar Transport came up with a way to spread awareness as well.

Working with the American Red Cross, Road Scholar created an 80,000 lbs tractor trailer dedicated to the foundation, part of its One Million Miles to a Cure Awareness Campaign.

Showing up at blood drives across the country and traveling the nation to deliver freight, Road Scholar’s Red Cross awareness truck is helping spread awareness.
