The Red Cross: Down the Street, Across the Country, and Around the World
 

Many people recognize the American Red Cross as a leading relief organization for major disasters across the county and collector of nearly half of the nation’s blood supply. But did you know that there are many other ways that the Red Cross provides humanitarian services in our local community and wherever needed. Hear from Melanie Tschida, Executive Director for the Southern Minnesota Chapter about the various programs provided by the Red Cross, and Marilee Thomas from SMSU, a leadership volunteer who has been involved locally and nationally for several years. Don’t miss this opportunity to be inspired by true stories of service and dedication and learn how you too can provide comfort and hope – whether here or across the country.
