“The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” — Mahatma Gandhi
Red Cross volunteers are incredible people.
What has been so amazing to me since joining the Red Cross is the level of Volunteer Service that happens here. I cannot express enough how phenomenal it is to see the time and commitment that Red Cross volunteers put in to serve our communities. The heart and the service of you, wonderful Red Cross volunteers, is both inspiring and gratifying.
You may have heard me say that YOU are our greatest commercial. When others see the joy that you have in serving as Red Crossers, they too may be inspired to get involved. The more people we have involved with the mission of the Red Cross, the more we will be able to reach out with that mission of the Red Cross.
Some new additions to our volunteer family are our six recently added Board Members. While these new volunteers may not work in the same capacity as our disaster volunteers or our biomed volunteers or our business operations volunteers, they too get to share in the joy of service. They are eager to learn about the work of the Red Cross, and they are eager to learn from YOU, our experienced Red Crossers. Will you help? Please take the time to get to know our Board Members. Share with them your Red Cross story. Help them help us reach out to our chapter by sharing with them the great work that we do.
By working together, we will all get to tell people about the work of the Red Cross. With all of us working as a team, we will better be able to prevent and alleviate human suffering in the face of emergencies through the generosity of the American people and by mobilizing the power of YOU.
Thank YOU for your service!
