Red Cross
continued from page 1
About 25 bookstores and busi
nesses in Eugene have agreed to car
ry free bookmarks made by the Red
Cross, and the majority of these
businesses said they will also allow
a canister for donations to accompa
ny the bookmarks.
Red Cross volunteers have been
asked to engage in a community
pledges campaign, in which volun
teers will ask their friends and fami
ly members to make pledges and
donations.
For the first time, Red Cross or
ganizations from across the nation
will be hosting a virtual auction.
O’Connell said donations of every
thing from a fishing trip to a week
end for two have been made by
businesses and individuals.
Runyan donated an Olympic run
ning jersey, which she signed, to the
auction.
Red Cross Community Campaign
Manager Don Jackson said the or
ganization didn’t have as much suc
cess fundraising last year as it had
hoped, raising only $106,000.
Jackson said many people don’t
realize what Red Cross does.
“We serve one in six people in
Lane County every year, and 256
people are served by our Meals on
Wheels program,” said Jackson.
( { People don’t realize
what we do for them, and
how desperate situations
can be until they’re in it
It’s your neighbors and
your community that has
made what we do
possible:

Each year, Red Cross chapters
across the country begin fundrais
ing in March, which is “Red Cross
Month.”
“In 1905, the Red Cross received a
charter from the U.S. Congress that
lets us do what we do for the com
munity,” said Daniel Jud, the Red
Cross emergency services supervi
sor. “We have to exist to provide dis
aster services, but we have to come
up with our own money to do it. ”
The Red Cross receives no federal
funds and depends on the commu
nity to fund the organization so it
can continue its service during dis
asters, Beban said.
“We don’t just do blood,” said
Phillips. “We have programs for every
stage of life for free, we respond to
every single fire, we serve 67,000
meals to homebound people and train
22,000 people in CPR and first aid.”
Ben Masengil, who has been a
Red Cross volunteer for more than
40 years, said disaster can happen
to anyone.
“People don’t realize what we do
for them, and how desperate a situa
tion can be until they’re in it,”
Masengil said. “It’s your neighbors
and your community that has made
what we do possible. ”
Beban said it’s the fundraising
that keeps people alive, even if they
don’t realize it.
“It’s easy for people to take a non
profit organization like the Red
Cross for granted,” Beban said. “But
as soon as we’re gone, they would
know it in a heartbeat. ”
Taxes

them about lesser-known deduc
tions such as tuition fees and book
expenses.
“There are many ways people
can save money, and a lot of peo
ple still don’t know about them,”
she said.
Heidenreich added that last year
she received a lot of positive feed
back from students who were re
lieved that they didn’t have to
tackle their tax forms alone.
“Most people hate doing taxes,”
she said. “It was fun to help people
because they were so thankful.”
Vaccination
continued from page 1
through close oral contact, includ
ing kissing, sharing utensils, or be
ing close to people when they are
coughing or sneezing.
Although no new cases have
- been confirmetLsince Dieringer’s
death, the Lanetounty Bloodbank
is taking preventive measures dur
ing its blood drive today in the
EMU.
The bloodbank is asking stu
dents who had close contact with
Dieringer, lived with her in Cloran
Hall or the Kappa Delta sorority,
or spent more than four hours
with her in a confined space be
tween Feb. 1 and Feb. 8 to not give
blood.
Students in close living situa
tions such as residence halls or
greek houses are most susceptible
to catching the bacteria. But Eyster
said the antibiotic is enough of a
preventive measure for fellow stu
dents in the Hamilton Complex
and other residence halls.
But he added all students should
receive a vaccination when they
come onto campus fall term.
Students and members of the
greek system continue to wear pink
ribbons in memory of the 19-year
old. Pink was her favorite color.
Many chapters have hung pink
banners outside their houses as
well.
Eyster said he discussed plans
for Dieringer’s memorial with her
family and friends, but no deci
sion has been firidlized. He said
there will probably be one memo
rial in her hometown of Portland,
where students will be invited,
and possibly a second service in
Eugene.
“We want to get a feel from stu
dents for what they want,” he said.
