John Bush, who joined the Red Cross on April 21, 2017, is a heavily involved volunteer and has served over 3,900 hours.
His involvement first started with case work which then expanded to being a part of the Disaster Action Team for Webster, Union, Henderson, and Hopkins Counties, and he is a member of the Home Fire Campaign for the counties that were mentioned.
He was also involved with response to the Marshall County School shooting in February 2018, as well as the Henderson County flood that happened in March 2018.
When John found out about the events at Marshall County High School, he quickly joined the Integrated Care and Condolences Team which were sent out to meet and console the impacted families. Learning from this experience, John used his newly found skills to work with victims from casualty fires and incidents later in the year. During the flooding in Henderson County, John opened a shelter as part of the in response. Since then, John has transitioned between damage assessment, government operations, sheltering, feeding and distribution. John has been a key factor in building the volunteer size in Henderson County and surrounding counties. Thank you for all you do, John!
