In the wake of the Boston Marathon bombing, many are still in shock and want to do anything in our power to help out. In your apartment community, there are several different ways for you and your residents to help the victims of this tragedy and others, to show support, or to help other people in need.

Organize a community blood drive. According to the Red Cross, the organization currently has more than enough blood to help the victims of the Boston Marathon bombing. However, there is always a need for blood, and even if it won’t help the people in Boston specifically, donated blood could help others in need. You can work with the Red Cross to set up a blood drive in your community, and have residents who are interested donate blood.
