American Red Cross

Faulkner County Service Center

Fiscal Year Service Highlights

 April 1, 2007 - June 30, 2007

  

The American Red Cross has been providing service to Faulkner County since September 17, 1917, when the chapter was originally chartered during the administration of President Woodrow Wilson. The Red Cross is an integral link in the overall network of service providers.  Those services include, but are not limited to: response to disaster and single family emergencies; service to military families; preparedness and training for disaster response; health & safety education and training; coordination of Entergy Project Deserve (a utility assistance program for the elderly and/or disabled); and support for blood services.

The Service Center also participates in community events to provide information to the community and company health fairs.  We also make educational presentations to civic groups, schools, and other organizations.
