The American Red Cross Southwestern Pennsylvania Chapter Club Red Young Professional Group hosted an evening cocktail and networking reception at the Ace Hotel in East Liberty on Friday, February 3, 2017. The event provided the opportunity for young professionals, ages 21-35, in the Pittsburgh Metropolitan area to come together to celebrate the positive impact the Red Cross has in the local community.

“Club Red is about exposing young professionals and millennials to charity and helping them to understand why it's important to give back to their community,” commented Eve Elsen, Club Red Board President. “We're coming together for a night to help raise money to support our local Red Cross, who is always there to help ease human suffering before, during, and after times of disaster. That’s a cause we can all get behind and support.

Cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, networking opportunities, dancing, and philanthropy highlighted the event, with money raised benefitting the Red Cross in our community.
