Letter from Heart of Tennessee Executive Director, Mike Cowles - May 2015



Warm weather is here and you know what that means…. The chance of storms becomes greater.  Are you prepared?  Does your flashlight work?  Do you have enough food and water stocked up?  Are your plans up to date in case you have to evacuate your home?  These are just a few of the steps you need to take to be ready.  For more information you can visit www.redcross.org or stop by our office and we will be glad to share with you how to be better prepared.

When you think of the Red Cross my hope is that you know us as a neighbor who is willing to reach out and lend a hand.  When called upon, we start the process of rebuilding lives, but the only way we are able to do that is with your generosity.  If you feel led, I encourage you to volunteer some of your time with us and see first-hand what it is like to make a difference in a person’s life - there is not a more rewarding experience than helping someone.  The other way you can help is to make a financial contribution which will enable us to provide the much needed services to victims of disaster, military personnel, blood needs and training citizens in life saving skills.  Stop by today and see where you fit in at the American Red Cross.

Mike
