APhA-ASP’s IPSF: Vampire Cup Project
What is the APhA-ASP’s IPSF: Vampire Cup Project?
Vampire Cup is an international blood donation competition among all the IPSF
associations. Vampire Cup is one of the humanitarian projects that APhA-ASP endorses. In
2012, we have collected 12,693 liters of blood, and we hope to collect even more this year! This
is a growing project and a great way to help others. By participating in the Vampire Cup, you are
building your IPSF association, promoting international relationships, and most importantly,
saving lives.
How can I get involved?
Easy! All APhA-ASP members can enter the competition. In addition, non-pharmacy
students may donate blood on behalf of APhA-ASP to contribute to the blood drive. Public
involvement helps raise awareness of the importance of blood donation. Blood drives can be a
maximum of six weeks long and can be held at any time from November 2014-June 2015. If the
blood drive lasts longer than six weeks, only the first six weeks will be counted. The drive must
be coordinated with a recognized blood donation organization (such as the Red Cross) that can
verify the units of blood collected. Before the blood drive is held fill out the Registration form
on page 3. After the blood drive is held, be sure to fill out the Vampire Cup Tracker form on
page 4 and email it back to [email protected]. Filling out the tracker form is the only way
your blood drive can be counted for APhA-ASP!
Where can I get information about Vampire Cup?

How can I relate this to my APhA-ASP Chapter?
You can get everyone involved with the Vampire Cup. The more people involved the
better! You can even collaborate with other organizations so that more people can donate blood.
What if I have more questions?
If you have more questions, please contact your APhA-ASP/IPSF National Project
Coordinator at [email protected].
