How you can help those impacted by the UNLV shooting

LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Channel 13 is listing ways people can help those impacted by the UNLV shooting.

BLOOD DRIVE

Officials with Vitalant, a nonprofit organization that collects blood from volunteer donors and provides blood, sent about 50 additional units of blood products to an area hospital in response to the shooting.

"We stand ready to provide more if requested," officials say.

Vitalant says donations are needed every day. Those who would like to support the community blood supply are encouraged by Vitalant to give blood in the coming days and weeks.

"This will help ensure blood is available for all types of emergencies, as well as everyday patients," officials say.

To make an appointment, please use the Vitalant app, visit vitalant.org, or call 1-877-25-VITAL.

FINANCIAL DONATIONS

The Vegas Strong Resiliency Center is working with UNLV and has set up a fund to accept donations for families of victims who died in the shooting and to help those who suffered injuries.

“We know many people want to show support for families of victims after a tragedy like this by offering a financial donation that can be used for any specific need they may have,” said Tennille Pereira, director of the Vegas Strong Resiliency Center, which is managed by the Legal Aid Center of Southern Nevada. “There are no administrative fees associated with the fund we have established. All donations will be distributed to victims’ families.”

VEGAS GOLDEN KNIGHTS

For those attending Sunday's game between the Vegas Golden Knights and the San Jose Sharks, the team is selling "UNLV Strong" shirts outside section 11/12 while supplies last.

The Vegas Golden Knights Foundation said the shirts will benefit the UNLV community and mental health student support services.

The team announced Monday that they will sell more shirts at Tuesday's game against the Calgary Flames at 7 p.m.
