July 20, 2015 - Nadine White, Major Gifts Officer - Corporate Partnerships for the American Red Cross, gave us a very informative presentation today.  She described the 5 major services provided by the Red Cross: Disaster Services, Blood Services, Preparedness - Health and Safety Services, International Services, and Services to the Armed Forces. She also gave us both descriptions and impressive statistics about how the Red Cross impacts lives everyday. Nadine emphasized the Home Fire Preparedness Campaign and a "Be Red Cross Ready" program to help people prepare for disaster. The Red Cross has several mobile apps available to help people prepare and respond to emergencies. Lots of discussion followed.  Many thanks Nadine.
