Day of Terror: A Community Responds to Disaster Relief Effort Requires Blood Donors By Ben Gullett Assistant City Editor Volunteers organizing aid to the vic tims of Tuesday’s terrorist attacks have said one of the most valuable resource local residents can offer right now is blood. Casey Copp, director of blood ser vices for the Orange County Red Cross, said members of the University commu nity can provide a much-needed boost to blood supplies in Washington, D.C., and New York. “The National Red Cross is mobilizing 80,000 units to New York and Washington,” Copp said. One unit is equal to one pint. The Red Cross will be holding blood drives today at the UNC School of Medicine and Thursday in the Great Hall of the Student Union. Today’s drive will be held from 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the third floor of Berryhill Hall, and Thursday’s will be from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. In addition to blood donors, many stu dents already have volunteered to help the Red Cross, and more are encouraged to give their time. Volunteers primarily are needed to man phones for the agency. Alyson Snavely, the Emergency Services Coordinator for the Orange County Red Cross, said student volun- “Supporting those blood drives is going to be an untold asset. ...

Participants in the session already boast ed some previous training in emergency response. No students are slated to work with the organization in either city because of the time commitment and the prior training required. Student Body President Justin Young said the Red Cross provides an oppor tunity to reach out to victims. “We need to help them help other people,” Young said. “It’s one of those things that puts it all in perspective - the scope of what’s happened.” Adam Clark, a senior English major, said he felt compelled to give his ser vices. “I just wanted to do something to help out,” he said. “1 can’t give blood, so this is something that I can do.” Joelle Ruben, a sophomore journal- DORMSPECIAL'”] !

Snavely said she is pleased with the aid of the students and hopes that the blood drive will be of great assistance. “With larger drives we try to shoot for about 80 to 100 pints (of blood),” Snavely said. “Supporting those blood drives is going to be an untold asset....
