Thank you! I hope we say that enough; your most precious asset is your time and you freely share that in service with us.
The first three months of my time with Red Cross has been incredibly busy and ever changing. What has remained constant is your passion for this work and loyalty to this mission. This was on full display during our recent apartment fire in Smyrna. We had numerous volunteers on the scene at Chalet Apartments, and many more at our staging area and then at the shelter. 47 individuals were served and I couldn’t be any more proud of this team. As I finish this, we are working to respond to individuals that have been impacted by flooding in Rutherford and DeKalb Counties. We have amazing volunteers at the scene and many more ready to join us. You love this work; I encourage you to share this opportunity with your friends and neighbors. We need to grow our team and you are the best equipped to share your story and encourage others to serve alongside us.
Please remember that we are grateful for your service and we want you to feel like this is your home. Our office is open and you are welcome in this place. We are already making progress on this journey together. Looking forward to what the future holds!
With gratitude,
Kathy Ferrell
Executive Director, Heart of Tennessee Chapter
