National American Red Cross Founder's Day, celebrated on May 21, is a special day to honor the start of the American Red Cross. It remembers when Clara Barton started this helpful organization in 1881. The Red Cross is known for helping people in need, especially during emergencies like floods, fires, or other disasters. They provide food, shelter, and medical care to those who are affected. On this day, people recognize the kind actions of the Red Cross and learn how important it is to help others when they are in trouble.
