According to a press release from the American Red Cross, the organization is bringing awareness to this week, which is National CPR & AED Awareness Week, taking place June 1-7.

From 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Tuesday, the Red Cross set up a disaster assistance center at the Bennett Recreation Center at 455 S. 1st St. for dozens of individuals impacted by Sunday’s tornadoes.

Donations, not federal funding, support nearly 100% of of the Red Cross' disaster relief work. Every single donation will make a difference in someone's life.
