For generations, the Red Cross has been a hero to people in our community: providing aid during disasters, assisting military families, teaching CPR and first aid skills, and providing a safe, clean blood supply.

Our local Mid-Michigan Chapter would like you to pledge to make a difference and become a “Hero” for the Red Cross. Your commitment will help ensure our ability to meet the continuous needs of our area. ALL MONEY RAISED BY OUR HEROES WILL STAY RIGHT HERE IN SHIAWASSEE COUNTY.

Any person or business can be a “Hero” for the American Red Cross by providing $1,000 in financial support for local disaster services of the Mid-Michigan Chapter. The goal is to involve as many individuals from as many backgrounds as possible to acheive our goal by June 15, 2009!

If you or someone you know may be interested in becoming a 2009 Hero, please contact John Garrison at 517-449-2224 or via e-mail at jgarrison@simplicityengineering.com.  Or call Sue Osika at the Red Cross Mid-Michigan Chapter at 743-6118.
