Central RED — “Humanitarian Aid to Ukraine and Camp Courageous”

Join us Tuesday, Nov. 15 | 11:30 a.m.

Join Central RED on Tuesday, Nov. 15, for a special luncheon presentation.

Charlie Becker and his son, Dr. Chad Becker, traveled to the border of Poland and Ukraine in March to aid the humanitarian crisis. They took 200 pounds of medical supplies with them
and an additional 1,000 pounds of supplies and food.

Thinking of others is not new to the Becker family as Becker is the CEO at Camp Courageous and has been there for 43 years. Camp Courageous, a camp for individuals with special needs, was established in 1972. Hear about their travels, what they saw and why they do what they do.

Charlie Becker studied political science, education, economics and sociology at the University of Iowa. He taught government and economics at Lee High School in Donnellson, Iowa. Chad Becker graduated from Iowa State University and attended medical school at Des Moines University. He is an emergency medicine specialist at UnityPoint Hospitals in Des Moines and Grinnell.
