Red Cross hopes to expand in Perry Co.
SUMMARY: The Southeast chapter of the Mississippi Red Cross is aiming to create more resources for those living in Perry County. They are asking for support from the community and the Board of Supervisors to help provide educational resources, facilities, and shelters during disasters. Volunteers like Bennie Crawford are essential to these efforts, and they encourage everyone to get involved. By participating in activities like mock shelter experiences, individuals can learn how to help people in need. Jay Harrison from WDAM 7 is helping spread awareness and encourages people to learn more about the Red Cross and volunteer opportunities.
Disaster program specialist Zoe Anderson said after a slew of fires in the Pine Belt recently, the chapter’s goal is also to find or build permanent shelters.

The War Memorial Building in Jackson
SUMMARY: In downtown Jackson, a special art piece commemorates veterans, particularly highlighting a returning World War I soldier. The War Memorial building serves as a tribute to soldiers rather than war itself, featuring the Mississippi Unknown Soldiers Monument alongside sculptures by George Albert Rer. These bar reliefs, modeled after Ray Scott, depict the same soldier in various life stages, from combat to homecoming. Completed just before World War II, the building primarily honors earlier battles, with World War II references limited to the elevator panels. On Veterans Day, the Daily Sip expresses gratitude to veterans for their service.
