HELPING
PEOPLE SAVE LIVES |
 For nearly a century, the American Red Cross has been
saving lives through health and safety education and
training. From first aid, CPR and blood borne pathogens
training to swimming and lifeguard training, HIV/AIDS
education and Babysitter's Training, American Red Cross
programs help people lead safer and healthier lives.
The Red Cross constantly strives to respond to the
health and safety concerns of Americans at home, in
school and in the workplace. Last year, nearly 12
million people enrolled in American Red Cross health and
safety courses.
