Quotes and wishes: «Red Cross»
After surviving the 2004 tsunami in Southeast AsiaAfter surviving the 2004 tsunami in Southeast Asia, I found myself without food, water, shelter…the most basic needs required to survive. Suddenly my livelihood hinged on the one hope shared by all survivors, ’please let help be on the way.’ For me, that help came in the form of The Red Cross. When I saw their volunteers, I knew it meant safety, clean water, a meal…not just for me, but for thousands of other survivors too. The work they do is invaluable. They save lives. They reinstall hope. And, I’m honored to join them in their mission to do both.

Jane Seymour Quotes and wishes: «Red Cross»
One of the most important trendsOne of the most important trends in the field of international voluntary service in recent years has been the recognition that social development cannot be pried loose from economic and political development and that the work of volunteer organizations cannot be isolated from other aspects of social work Prognostics for voluntary service must be seen as part of a whole. It is already outmoded to look on community social services as an entity in itself: it is part of a socio-economic whole...

Marcia Gay Harden Quotes and wishes: «Red Cross»
The best way would be to pass on the kindness in the futureWhen I was a young schoolboy at the Beijing Opera Academy in Hong Kong, I was very poor and yearned for some of the most basic things in life. My fellow students were in similar need and it was at this time that a representative from the Red Cross arrived, bringing us supplies. My classmates and I were so grateful and touched and I vowed to always remember this generosity. When I asked what I could do to repay the Red Cross, the representative told me that the best way would be to pass on the kindness in the future if I were ever able to. I never forgot his words and as soon as I could, I established the Jackie Chan Charitable Foundation and have been working for charitable causes for nearly 20 years.

Greg Biffle Quotes and wishes: «Red Cross»
When my home was claimed by fireWhen my home was claimed by fire last year, the Red Cross was among the first on-site. They looked after my family when I couldn’t be there and offered to help in any way they could. We were fortunate because we only lost ‘things’ that could be replaced. That’s not the case for every victim of disaster and that’s when the Red Cross steps in. From personal experience, I am supporting the Red Cross and their work to unite families and aid in times of need.
