Going white for blood

 

I usually write about basketball, sure, but, I couldn’t let this piece of soccer news go by without a mention. A really cool thing a team from Brazil’s second division is doing.

Vitória da Bahia wears black and red striped jerseys. Always. They are going black and white for now.

Fear not, the red stripes are coming back. One by one. The team is promoting blood donation. Vitória set goals for its fans to reach. When the first goal is reached, the bottom stripe will go back to red. When the second goal is reached, the next stripe will become red again. And so on, and so forth until the whole jersey is black and red again.

A nice way to help those in need and promote a great cause.
