At the Gaston County Chapter, we realize the importance of youth involvement.

Our Red Cross youth ages 14-18 provides youth volunteer activities and leadership skill building activities. We also boast a youth Clown-Around Troupe that travels to pre-schools, daycares and libraries teaching basic first aid and safety to children.
