Volunteering At American Redcross Society

I have been volunteering here for last couple of days. I have noticed lots of help and supports from the state and society towards the victims of Hurricane Harvey - Houston.
I come here almost every day.  (from 9 or 9:30 am till 8 or 9 pm)
But on September 1, 2017, was one of the most memorable and satisfying days for me.

I saw a little baby fell down and got hurt on the nose. It was bleeding, but I had to do something to divert his mind. I took him on my ark and started teasing the place where he hit himself a moment ago. I shake my arms and showed him animated fingers and did something funny with my voice. Ta da! he forgot that he had been hit by something.
My task wasn't finished yet. I had to find his family (in the crowds of thousands) and had to take him to the medical supports. Luckily, after a couple of minutes, I found his family. his mom already had few more kids around her and plus she was carrying some food and other stuff. His grandmother was also carrying some huge box of toiletries and stuff. So instead of giving them their son, I decided I would take him for medical.
He was still in my arms. I took him there but there was a huge line opposite the medical desk. But I went in front as was wearing a volunteer batch and no one stopped me. I explained them the incident.
While registering the boy, the doctor, and registrar, they all thought it was my kid. he was so happy with me, playing with me laughing and all. while I was giving him to his grandmother, he looked at me and continuously was looking and looking. Like he wants to say something, that don't go we were having fun or maybe, hey! I will miss you or something like that.

While Serving food to the people, a pregnant woman came and asked for four more packages of food for her family and for her three kids. But at that moment for her it not possible to carry them all together and the place where she was placed, was also a far. Her family was in Hall 'A' and we were serving food in Hall 'E'. Each hall was huge,  like the double size of a Tennis Ground. Which means she was supposed to cross four halls to get back to her place.
I offered my service to drop the food to her place. While walking she blessed me, she said: "I pray when you get married you will also have a girl child, as your first baby". In some places, this kind of blessing might be seen as a curse, but for me, it was really a blessing. Thank you, Lady, for this.

While returning happily I saw another old lady carrying lots of blankets and pillows on a cart kind of thing. It was a bed but a temporary one.
I asked her, "May I help you, ma'am?", 
Lady, "Yes please young man!"

We together pushed that cart to one the area in Hall 'C'. There she asked me to make two beds for two new coming people ( Survivals of Hurricane Harvey). We tried to make beds as comfortable as we have in our home with enough of blankets and pillows. After that, I dropped those remained blankets and stuff back to the corner of Hall "C'.

Though I had done lot of other works today but these three things were asking m, again and again, to write about them. I do not know what are they. I do not whether they are big or small. I do not know whether they are considered as volunteering of not, but after each incident, I was happy. there was a kind of satisfaction. There were smiles on face with pride.

From my these experiences with American Red Cross, I had learnt a lot of new things not only about Humanity, but also learnt something really new and interesting about the American. For example, how the entire country came together to work with the survival and needy people. How millions of lives were saved by the volunteering work of people. How nation works together to tackle the problems.

Thank you everyone for showing me and the world one more new side of USA.
