If you attended the 2015 Heroes Luncheon, the success of
this year’s event will come as no surprise.
On Wednesday, October 14 business and community leaders came together to
honor local heroes at the CHI Memorial Heroes Luncheon. Lt. Commander Tim White, Commanding Officer of
the Navy Operational Support Center of Chattanooga, spoke to the crowd about
his experiences including his interaction with the Red Cross around the world.
Each year, the American Red Cross of Southeast Tennessee
honors individuals and groups for acts of great bravery, dedication and service
to the community at the Heroes Luncheon, sharing the mission of the American
Red Cross and raising the financial funding resources necessary to provide
their core humanitarian services. This
year was no different. We honored six
individuals in four categories for their service to the community: Conner Pearce and Macy Howell as First
Responder Heroes; Jason Greer, Humanitarian Hero; Amy Dickerson, Medical Hero; Jacob Gray and
Mason Chamberlain as Youth Heroes. In
addition, over $54,000 was raised to support the local American Red Cross serve
in Southeast Tennessee.
Thank you to everyone who made this year’s Heroes Luncheon
such a success!
