The Lucky Clover Trading Company Gives Back to the Red Cross

Benicia, CA- The Lucky Clover Trading Co., a division of Kingsum, Inc. announced today that they are making a monetary donation to the Red Cross. The Red Cross is a non-profit organization dedicated to “providing compassionate care to those in need”. Its network of generous donors, volunteers, and employees work to prevent and alleviate human suffering. The Red Cross is the nation’s premier humanitarian organization and is currently helping the recent victims of Hurricane Sandy and the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.

The Red Cross was founded in 1881 by Clara Barton and a circle of her acquaintances in Washington, D.C. Barton led the Red Cross for 23 years, during which time they conducted the first domestic and overseas disaster relief efforts, aided the United States military in the Spanish-American War, and campaigned successfully for the inclusion of peacetime relief work as part of the global Red Cross network. Today, supporters, volunteers, and employees provide compassionate care by providing assistance in these five key service areas:

  • People affected by disasters in America
  • Support for members of the military and their families
  • Blood donations- collection, processing and distribution
  • Health and safety education and training
  • International relief and development

Associate Rachelle Gutschenritter states “In the wake of recent disasters, I am grateful to work for a company that chooses to support those affected by the tragedies. It is a humbling experience to know that my dedication and hard work for this company is paid forward through our monthly donations.”

The Lucky Clover Trading Company is excited about giving back and is thrilled that their donation will help the Red Cross continue to carry forth its mission of helping others. The company will select one charitable non-profit organization to donate to every month. This program is open to non-profit organizations locally and nationally and The Lucky Clover Trading Co. encourages those qualified to apply.
