Susan Hassmiller Devotes 50 Years Service to the Red Cross – And She’s not Done Yet! I remember going to their huge and extensive basement [in Poland] where they keep all the paper files of the people from the Holocaust that the Red Cross has worked over all these decades to link family members – from the time of the horrible death camp releases to very recently. |
A Q&A with Red Cross Alumni, Megan Allday "Air Madagascar was SELLING our empty seats to random strangers at the airport! I noticed they had put our contract on the board and added in pencil, “we can sell any seat the Red Cross is not using.” Not so much! I was standing in an X shape in the door of the aircraft until we took off, blocking access from these random strangers coming up the boarding stairs."

"I joined ARCAN to keep in touch with the people, but also with the Red Cross mission. I tell my friends who are former Red Cross colleagues that the Red Cross has an amazing work force, and experts in a lot of different things. I recommend that people work continually to maintain their professional network, which I like to think of as my work community. Ask for help from others but offer it back if you can.”
Court Ogilvie, American Red Cross NHQ, 2002 - 2014
