Red Cross HEROES

Annual HEROES Campaign

"HEROES for the American Red Cross" is a grassroots campaign in which local business people, school groups, church groups, civic clubs, and individuals pledge to raise at least $1,100, through any legal means they choose, for the local Red Cross chapter.

$1,100 is what it costs to feed, clothe and shelter a family of 4 who have lost everything to a house fire.

The funds may be raised in a variety of ways, such as individual donation, employer sponsorship, civic clubs, schools, etc. Funds raised will be used to support Red Cross services such as disaster relief, assistance for fire victims, emergency military services, first aid, CPR and AED training, and disaster preparedness information for our community.

All money raised will support services to your neighbors in Tippecanoe, Benton and Carroll Counties.
