Members of the Notre Dame community may save hundreds of lives today simply through the donation of their blood. The Lewis Blood Drive will take place in the hall's basement from 10 a.m. to 4:30p.m. today, and all the blood will be donated to the South Bend Medical Foundation. "All of the blood stays local which is really exciting," said event organizer Leah Miller. Miller is organizing the event with fellow Lewis Hall service coordinators sophomore Alice Shepherd and sophomore Alice Griesemer. Just one pint of blood can save three to four people's lives, and the drive has already filled all avail able appointments with donors. The coordinators gave Lewis residents the priority donor spots and then began a campus- wide search for donors, Miller said. Miller said this is her lOth time donating blood. One of her main reasons for starting the drive is to make more people comfortable donating. "I want people to get over their fear," Miller said, emphasizing that it only takes about 10 minutes of discomfort to save several lives. Lewis rector Linda Cirillo said We want you to succeed. and all the signs say GO. she sees the blood drive as another way to fulfill the message of Christ. That's why we've created an environment that's conducive "It is one way of giving ourselves to personal and professional growth and success. At to our brothers and sisters," Cirillo said.
