Letter from East Tennessee Executive Director, Sharon Hudson - November 2018

Happy Thanksgiving!

To our many volunteers and donors who come to us from a wide variety of backgrounds, life experiences, education, skills and personalities - Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving!

Fulfilling the mission of the American Red Cross to prevent and alleviate human suffering would not be possible without your dedication and commitment.  As we prepare to celebrate the busy holiday season, we can reflect over the year’s events and the many challenges we’ve faced and offer a word of thanks and appreciation for overcoming them.

During this holiday season of giving and sharing, Red Cross volunteers, donors, and staff show their compassion by bringing hope and comfort into the lives of those who need it most.  November 27th is GIVING TUESDAY, a day that kicks off the charitable season when many focus on their holiday and end of year giving.  You can give a unique and meaningful gift to help the people we meet every 8 minutes, who have been devastated by disaster.  Your gift this holiday season can bring hope to those in need.  This year give something that means something.  #GiveWithMeaning

The American Red Cross depends on financial support to provide relief to victims of hurricanes, floods, fires and other natural disasters.  You can donate by visiting our website redcross.org by calling 1-800-REDCROSS, or by texting the word REDCROSS to 90999 to make a donation.

Thank you for your continued support and Happy Thanksgiving!
