SUE KERVITSKY, LEVITTOWN, PENNSYLVANIA: Hi, my name is Sue Kervitsky, and I'm from Levittown, Pennsylvania. And my question is about the Red Cross and how many countries they serve in.</s>STEVEN E. SHULMAN, HISTORICAL RESOURCES, AMERICAN RED CROSS: The International Red Cross movement includes 176 countries. The American Red Cross itself is involved in about 40 countries today, will help with public health, will help with rebuilding communities and societies when there's been an earthquake. Right now, we've had some ongoing experiences in Mozambique and Malawi with floods; India and El Salvador, with earthquake relief; and we also have public health programs going on in southern Africa, as well in Latin America. Wherever there's a need, the American Red Cross will be there helping out in whatever way we can, and that's all because the American public gives us wherewithal to do it, by making donations of their time, their blood, and their money.
