Hometown Heroes BASH
As a community leader in emergency preparedness and response, the American Red Cross is proud to present Hero Awards to local individuals who have acted courageously in a time of emergency. Often at great risk to their own personal safety and well-being, these ordinary individuals have acted in a heroic manner by reaching out to help others in times of greatest need. Due to their courage, tragedies were averted and lives were saved.
What better way to celebrate the Red Cross spirit of humanitarianism than by honoring those individuals who have shown courage, coolness and kindness during a time of emergency?
