CHECK IT OUT: Union presents a large check to the Red Cross.


The total is in.


The Union community has raised more than $10,000 for hurricane relief, to be donated to the American Red Cross Katrina Disaster Relief Fund. More than $7,000 of that is from student-run fundraisers, including raffles, dinners and club events. Leading the student efforts were Norman Nguyen '08 and Daniel Khasidy '06.


A check for $10,536 was presented to Barbara Leonard, Red Cross chapter chair, on Wednesday.
