For a quick pinch and a good deed, San Antonio blood donors will receive a $10 gift card of their choice from either Whataburger or Bill Miller Bar-B-Q.

In honor of World Blood Donor Week, The South Texas Blood & Tissue Center has teamed up with the two San Antonio-based businesses from June 14-20 to thank locals for their donation and bring more awareness to the cause.

STBTC officials told mySA.com that this is an extension of World Blood Donor Day, which was June 14, to attract the community to donate blood as there is a national decline in donations during the summer.

"Give the gift of life," STBTC said. "Spare an hour of your time."

To claim your free meal, schedule an appointment through Eventbrite at over a dozen San Antonio locations and show the tech the confirmation you received upon scheduling your donation (can be from mobile or print out).

Donors must present photo ID, last four digits of Social Security number and date of birth.
