AMERICAN RED CROSS

 COMMUNITY EDUCATION PROGRAM


At this point, demand for these community classes is far exceeding our capabilities.  You can help! The American Red Cross is in need of volunteers to help teach these classes. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer for Community Education, please contact Wanda Sanford at (334) 260-4022.

Recent studies show individuals feel they are less prepared for disasters and other emergencies in their workplaces and schools than in their homes.
