“The Red Cross is always ready with life-saving supplies, assets and equipment, because we know the value of preparedness. Thousands of well-trained volunteers are extremely loyal and committed to alleviating the suffering of the vulnerable, particularly in the aftermath of disasters. You can always count on us,” President Gordon stated.
