National Themes For May 21st: National American Red Cross Founder’s Day, National Waitstaff Day, National Strawberries and Cream Day, and National Memo Day.

🚨National American Red Cross Founder’s Day marks the anniversary of the American Red Cross, which was founded in 1881 by Clara Barton, the first president of the organization. Barton led the organization for the next twenty-three years. The American Red Cross is a humanitarian organization which provides assistance inside the United States and is the designated affiliate of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. In addition to domestic disaster relief, the American Red Cross which is headquartered in Washington D.C. and governed by volunteers now offers services in five other areas: ✨Community services to help the needy. ✨Communications services and comfort for military members and their families. ✨The collection, processing and distribution of blood and blood products. ✨Educational programs on preparedness, health and safety. ✨International relief and development programs. Clara Barton (1821 – 1912) founded the American chapter of the Red Cross following her travel to Europe, which began in 1869. While in Europe, Barton volunteered her time working with the International Red Cross during the Franco-Prussian War. Upon returning to the United States, she was determined to bring the Red Cross to America. In 1881, the American Red Cross was started.

👨‍🍳National Waitstaff Day was created to show appreciation to and thank all waitstaff for making our dining experiences enjoyable ones. At the same time, restaurant owners and managers can also recognize and express their appreciation to their team of waitstaff helping their restaurants thrive. Waiters and waitresses are a big determining factor on the difference between your dining experience being a good experience or a bad one. The food may be delicious, but their attentiveness and attitude can make or change the whole experience. There are those waitresses who go out of their way to ensure you receive excellent service and ensure that you have the best time possible. Waiters who fill your drinks before you ask, bring extra bread, rolls or chips, give honest recommendations on food choices when asked are a valuable asset to any restaurant. Excellent servers turn diners into regulars who are known by name.

🍓National Strawberries and Cream Day! Fresh strawberries and homemade whipped cream is a must when strawberries are in season. They are the perfect, refreshing, light snack! Strawberries are a very healthy snack as they are low-fat, low in calories and an excellent source of vitamin C, fiber, folic acid, and potassium.

📝National Memo Day! Memo, short for a memorandum, is a document or other communication, intended to inform a group of people about a particular topic. Memos are used for many different purposes, most often in the workplace. These missives also have had a bad reputation of slipping into the wrong hands. In the modern world, that means, shared infinitely on social media. When the messages contain proprietary business information, state secrets or passionate opinions, memos are usually best kept out of print.
