American Red Cross Club at UNC-Chapel Hill

Biomedical

How do blood drives work? What are the requirements for donating blood? What is a double red cell donation?

If you're eager to know the answers to these questions and more about the blood services of the American Red Cross, then check out the Biomedical committee! Have fun organizing monthly blood drives and see what it's like to save up to three lives at once!

Health and Safety

Do you know what to do in an emergency?  Join the Health and Safety committee and you can help teach life-saving skills as an Adult/Infant/Child CPR and First Aid instructor or simply volunteer your time to support the case.  Help make the community safer today, one CPR and First Aid class at a time!

HIV/AIDS

How do most people become infected with HIV?  When is World AIDS Day? 

Join the HIV/AIDS committee to learn more about the world's most deadly diseases and how you can play a part in prevention and awareness.  Don't miss out on the opportunity to become a certified HIV/AIDS Education and Awareness Instructor, volunteer with local AIDS organizations and learn more about local and international HIV/AIDS issues.
