I Stand Corrected...

My daughter brought me her paper on Clara Barton to proofread. While reading it, I noticed she had Ms. Barton down as Founder of the AMERICAN RED CROSS.


Well, bust my buttons! I didn't know there was a difference. Kayleigh set me straight. There is, in fact, an International Red Cross and an American Red Cross. There is even a Canadian Red Cross and, probably, many others as well.

Clara Barton founded the AMERICAN Red Cross as a sister-act to the International Red Cross that so inspired her into public service.
