Being Red Cross certified is a well respected and required aspect of many Red Cross supporters.  Foster parents are required to be CPR and First Aid trained.  Lifeguards must be trained in lifesaving skills.   Volunteers must be trained with disaster response skills.   Office employees, factory workers, teachers, etc must all be certified through the Red Cross.
