Letter from the Northeast Tennessee Executive Director, Kalen Collins - August 2018



YOUTH ENGAGEMENT
The American Red Cross of Northeast Tennessee teamed up with United Way of Greater Kingsport and other local agencies to engage local high school students in a “game of life.” These students are members of S.H.O.U.T. (Students Helping Others Understand Tomorrow).  Volunteer Weymouth Sluss helped guide students to the appropriate Red Cross programs, as well as educate this group on all the services Red Cross offers.



COCKE COUNTY FLAG RETIREMENT CEREMONY
On July 28th, volunteer Paul Pratt represented the American Red Cross at Cocke County’s Flag Retirement Ceremony. Military members, veterans, community members and volunteers braved the heat to respectfully dispose of over 400 worn and tattered American flags.
