American Red Cross

I chose the American Red Cross as one of the good things in the United States to write about. They helped out with Hurricane Katrina in Louisiana in August 23, 2005. They help wherever they can in the world. Whether there is a Hurricane or an Earthquake, whether it’s in China or Great Britain the American Red Cross is there. The American Red Cross does not only help in the U.S. but all around the world!

Animal Liberation Front

Animal Liberation Front

This organization is helping around the world to stop animal testing and cruelty. There are millions of animals every day being used for these cruel actions. With the help of these men and women it can be prevented! I think that this is a very good idea what these people are doing to save the animals.
