Worried about high home heating fuel prices? The Central Vermont/NH Valley Chapter of the American Red Cross, like everyone else has noticed the recent high increases in fuel prices. As you and your family make choices about how to heat your home this winter, please take a moment to review some home fire safety tips.





This year's NNEDI was a great success! If you attended, we were glad to see you there.
We are already planning NNEDI 2008. The institute will be held on November 6 through 9 in 2008.

SAF Volunteers Needed

For service to the Armed Forces, (SAF) The Red Cross serves as the primary emergency communications link between military families and service members around the world. If an area resident needs to reach a military family member concerning a birth, death, medical emergency, change in child care arrangement or other family-related crisis, Red Cross staff and volunteers verify and deliver the information to the service member.

Our local volunteers make this emergency communications link happen by agreeing to receive phone calls one or two nights a month from families, and then delivering or verifying the information into the communications systems operated by the American Red Cross. The link happens by phone or by the internet.

Health and Safety Instructors Needed
