TALLAHASSEE, FL--
The Capital Area Chapter of the American Red Cross, will host their Grand Opening Celebration of the new Chapter headquarter facility on March 15 at 11 a.m. The 22,000-square-foot facility, located at 1115 Easterwood Drive, will officially dedicate their new facility with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, tours, demonstrations, and a lunch reception.
The new facility will allow the Chapter to expand and continue its commitment to the Big Bend community and to help people prevent, prepare for, and respond to emergencies.

Funding for the new Chapter headquarters was made possible by the people of Kuwait through the Kuwait Red Crescent Society.
Latest Comments
As a volunteer with the Capital Area Chapter of the American Red Cross, I can earnestly say that the comment made about how the funds are allocated is false. The building was funded from a $25 million grant by the people of Kuwait, through the Kuwait Red Crescent Society and was not taken from any money donated by the public. They respond to local, national and international disasters everyday and yes the American Red Cross get the job done.
Besides, the money for the building was donated by the Kuwait Red Crescent society for the purpose of building new chapter buildings in the Gulf Coast area.
Why would you post such inaccurate information. The number us 9 percent not 82.
