Volunteers Took Action

Holding a Measles Day

at Parkway Place Mall 

on Saturday, February 27th.

The Initiative - Learn More

We are proud that, as a community raising over $15,000 since 2001, we have vaccinated 15,000 children world wide.  Red Cross Youth Volunteers included students from New Century High School, Sparkman High , Covenant Christian Academy, Huntsville High Hazel Green High, Huntsville Middle School, Randolph School

 

 

Measles are one of the leading killers of children worldwide. An estimated 540 children die each day from the disease.  There is a solution. Measles is easily preventable with a safe and effective vaccine. It costs less than $1 to vaccinate a child.  Since 2001, the Measles Initiative has saved lives by supporting the vaccination of more than 700 million children in more than 60 countries!

Prepare Your Home and Family

Home fires are the most common disaster that the Red Cross responds to and also the most preventable.  Families need to take a few simple precautions to avoid tragedies, such as having working smoke alarms on every level of their homes and having family fire escape plans in place to help get everyone out of the house safely.    Learn More
