__Quarter-__ Hi my name is Clara Barton.I conciter myself as a hero because i help people without being told or paid.

__Red Cross-__ I should be the greatest American Hero because I am the founder of American Red Cross,which helps anyone in natural disasters and anyone in need.

__School-__ My first heroic act was when i was ony 17. I opened a free school in MASS. Anyone could go there.

__Civil war pics-__ When the civil war broke out i decided to help out all the wounded soliders. I didn't except the money the government was offering me.This was also the first time women were able to work on the battlefields. I was known as the "Angle of the Battlefield" it was a very startling sight to see.

__Map of Europe-__ I went to Europe for to rest and thats when i heard about the red cross. They explained to me about how they helped people.

__Treaty of Geneva__ 12 nations had already signed the "Treaty of Geneva", but we hadn't which means we weren't a part of red cross. I convinced the US that it was a good thing to be a part of and the eventually signed it.Thats when the American Red Cross was born.

__President pic-__ I became the president for 22 years. I recieved the Iron Cross and the International Red Cross Medal.

__window-__ My advice on solving a current problem today is to never give up. most ppl these days give up way to quickly. always have a plan b. it somethings fails the first time but make sure u have a back up plan. make your window of oppurtuinties larger.
