Red Cross - Helping New Orleans Kids
Since its founding in 1881 by visionary leader Clara Barton, the American Red Cross has been the nation's premier emergency response organization. As part of a worldwide movement that offers neutral humanitarian care to the victims of war, the American Red Cross distinguished itself by also aiding victims of devastating natural disasters. Over the years, the organization has expanded its services, always with the aim of preventing and relieving suffering.<br><br>
Anthony Bean community Theatre was one of several programs in the state receiving grant dollars from the LFRC to serve children impacted by the Hurricanes. Through partnerships with the American Red Cross and the Office of Youth Development, the LFRC was able to facilitate $5,000,000 in funding to quality summer programs in 26 parishes across the state.
