Whenever disaster strikes at home or abroad, the Red Cross springs into action. It’s a story many of us learn as school children: Clara Barton, nicknamed the Angel of the Battlefield because of her selfless medical service to Civil War soldiers, established the American Red Cross in 1881 after learning about a similar European movement.
What began as neutral care and aid to those injured in combat is today a vast organization that brings hope and help to those suffering loss. It’s a wonderful legacy of American history…with no hint of Italian roots.
