what you’ve read in the class next meeting.

It is, perhaps, not farfetched to say that whenever one talks about disaster relief,
the Philippine Red Cross (PRC) immediately comes to mind. The institution has
been at the forefront of giving humanitarian aid in the country, whether through
its regular blood donation campaigns or through its various services that include
relief and rehabilitation, rescue and welfare intervention.
The celebrations include the inauguration of the PRC Library, launching of its 75th
Yearbook, as well as the awarding of the first 36 original PRC chapters. Speaking of chapters, there are
now 103 of them nationwide, proving that the extent of the services the PRC provides is wide of scope.
It is fitting, therefore, that this 75th anniversary is headline with the theme, “A Tradition of Service.”
