Their efforts similarly have led them to install fire alarms in four hundred houses in Dillon County and to educate elementary students on the importance of the American Red Cross; and

Whereas, furthermore, the club has helped raise two thousand dollars for the American Red Cross through various donations; and

Whereas, the members of the House of Representatives of the Palmetto State are thankful for the efforts put forth by the students of the Dillon High School Red Cross Club and wish them much continued success in their endeavors. Now, therefore,
