April is National Volunteer Month. However,
it's ridiculous to think that just 30 days are enough to express the
appropriate thanks to those of you who are the lifeblood of the American Red
Cross!
In the East Tennessee Chapter, about 2,000 volunteers
bring comfort and care to those who have lost their homes to disaster, taught
children how to stay safe, educated communities on emergency first aid,
reconnected military with loved ones, and so much more. I am in awe of your
passion and commitment to the mission every day!
But we also have volunteers who support that mission in
less traditional ways: auditing financials, answering phones, checking tires,
changing light bulbs. Thanks to these folks who make it possible for the
direct service staff to do their jobs!
Help us grow our family. A heavy load becomes very light
when there are many hands to lift it. Invite someone to join the Red Cross
today! Invite someone to make a difference in their community!
