Our speaker this week was Peter Brown from American Red Cross Lehigh-Bucks. Pete shared a very informative program about the many services the Red Cross provides both domestically and internationally. Some of these include blood services, care for those in time of disasters and veteran services. Many lives have been saved thanks to the Home Fire Campaign which places smoke alarms in homes and helps families prepare a fire escape plan. The Red Cross has their annual gala coming up in April. It's a fun night of food and dancing.
