The daylong live broadcast featured The Preston & Steve Show, Pierre Robert, and Brent Porche. In addition, Nighttime DJ Jacky Bam Bam stayed up all night into the morning to lend a helping hand with Preston and Steve.

Participating donors received the latest Preston & Steve t-shirt as well as a collectible tote bag courtesy of Window Nation. In addition, complimentary Everfresh Juice was served in the recovery area as well as snacks and water.

Many thanks to Live! Casino and Hotel Philadelphia and The Greater Philadelphia Expo Center in Oaks for serving as location hosts for the blood drive as well as the students of Neumann Media at Neumann University for providing videography and streaming services.
