The resolution introduced on April 10, 2025, recognizes May 8, 2025, as World Red Cross Day and Red Crescent Day at the Legislature. It celebrates the spirit of humanitarianism and honors the volunteers of the American Red Cross in the Central Appalachia Region for their selfless contributions to the community. The resolution highlights the legacy of Clara Barton, the founder of the American Red Cross, and acknowledges the vital services provided by the organization, including disaster relief, blood donation, and support for military families.

In 2024, the American Red Cross in West Virginia assisted nearly 900 families affected by disasters, collected around 40,000 units of blood, trained over 20,000 individuals in lifesaving skills, and supported nearly 80 military members and their families. The resolution calls for a collective commitment to strengthen the community and encourages everyone to recognize and support the humanitarian efforts of the Red Cross. It concludes with a directive to forward a copy of the resolution to the Regional Communications Director of the American Red Cross Central Appalachian Region office.
