Testimonials
Red Cross has helped me work outside of my comfort zone and the people I’ve met through Red Cross have made me a better person. From Leadership Development Camp to Red Cross Club I’ve learned many life skills that will I will continue to use in the future! The organization has allowed me to help my community as well as grow as a person.

“Although the ‘20 - ‘21 school year is virtual, we’ve gotten a lot of opportunities to participate in numerous fundraisers and events such as blood drives and Gravity Water raffles. I’m so grateful that we’ve expanded our potential to such opportunities regardless of our limitations due to virtual schooling. I’ve learned a lot from the club and our board members, and hope to continue doing so in the future.”

“Volunteering with the American Red Cross has been an invaluable experience to both serve my community and grow as a humanitarian leader. By engaging in its youth programs, Red Cross has allowed me to further explore my passion for community service, preparedness, and public health. I could not be more grateful for the invaluable leadership, communication, and service skills I have gained in my time serving the Red Cross mission.”
