Each person who successfully donates blood will have the opportunity to be entered for a chance to be one of 10 winners of $10,000 each.

“We have established a very tight-knit bond with the Blood Bank and so, we are happy to have them on board for this initiative. We are aware that they are facing a shortage of blood supply, therefore, we had to make it a priority to figure out how best we could assist in getting persons to donate.” stated Heather Goldson, Supreme Ventures Foundation Director.

Supreme Ventures Limited looks forward to the growth of domino from just a household hobby, to maximizing its true potential as a professionally recognized sport. The Company urges participants and supporters to come out early to be a part of history.
