Abstract

Dr. Bernadine Healy was the president of the American Red Cross when the terrorist attacks took place on September 11, 2001. In the aftermath, the American Red Cross implored the American public for donations of money to help those affected by these attacks. This is not an unusual or unreasonable request from this charitable organization, which provides assistance and relief to victims of disasters. The difference in this case study rests within the management of the $564 million collected. Rather than distributing all the donated money to victims of the attacks, Healy created the Liberty Disaster Relief Fund to create a blood reserve/storage system and saved $200 million of the donations for future disasters. Healy would be forced to resign by her board. This case study looks at both sides of this debate: Was Healy being a responsible steward of the money, or did she mislead the American public?

美国红十字会和世界贸易中心
2001年9月11日恐怖袭击发生时,伯纳丁·希利博士是美国红十字会主席。事件发生后,美国红十字会恳请美国公众捐款,帮助那些受袭击影响的人。对于这个为灾难受害者提供援助和救济的慈善组织来说,这不是一个不寻常或不合理的要求。本个案研究的差异在于对所收集的5.64亿美元的管理。希利并没有将所有捐款分发给袭击事件的受害者,而是创建了自由灾难救济基金,建立了一个血液储备/储存系统,并为未来的灾难节省了2亿美元的捐款。希利将被迫辞职。这个案例研究考察了辩论的双方:希利是负责任的资金管理者,还是她误导了美国公众?订阅JNEL
