Review for American National Red Cross, Washington, DC, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I began volunteering for the Red Cross almost 15 years ago in Germany as a participant in the dental assistant training program. The Red Cross changed my life at that point. I had no career path to speak of and the Red Cross gave me an employable skill and future. I continued volunteer for the Red Cross until I was offered a paid position at a dental clinic. I then took a break from the Red Cross for several years while I worked and raised my children. Two years ago I found myself again overseas this time in South Korea. I was able to use my skills from my initial experience with the Red Cross to help teach other dental assistants. I was also trained to be a CPR instructor and have been volunteer teach CPR classes for two years. The Red Cross is an amazing organization that has helped me grow into the person I wanted to be and I am forever grateful.
