Miller |
For over 20 years Sandra Miller
has been volunteering her time to the Red Cross.
"The
attraction of having First AID and CPR training
adn then using this ability to help others was
what made me join the Red Cross," she admits.
As
much as she is focused on her community, Ms. Miller
has also found a calling in ensuring that volunteers
and staff are taken care of.
During
the Hurricane Ivan operation in September of 2004
one of her primary, self-assigned roles was to ensure
that staff and volunteers got their meals, water,
and sometimes even the occasional cup of coffee.
Ms.
Miller is a dedicated volunteer who sees the greater
picture for what it is. "I have
matured to realize that the Red Cross is not
just about the Cayman Islands," she explains.
"It
is the positive representation around the world that
this movement has influenced. This is the responsibility
I have in listening to people in confidence
and helping revamp situations."
Ms. Miller is
a single parent to her eight
year old daughter Oksana, whom she home schools.
The Red Cross "has become my hobby". A
hobby that she takes very seriously and that "has been satisfying". |
