Red Cross is looking for local heroes

The 10th Annual Heroes Break­fast event will take place on Wednes­day, Novem­ber 14, at 8:30 a.m. to ben­e­fit your local Amer­i­can Red Cross. Break­fast and pro­gram will be from 8:30 a.m. to 10 a.m., at the Cen­ter for Older Adults, 800 Cheshire Road, Delaware.

We are pleased to announce that Bill Kelly, Chief Mete­o­rol­o­gist ABC6/Fox28 will be our guest speaker. Bill has a true pas­sion for the weather and this year truly has been a “HOT” topic. We hope you will join us to hear how the weather plays an impor­tant role in the Amer­i­can Red Cross.

Each year, the Heroes Break­fast is the pre­miere event when the Amer­i­can Red Cross hon­ors com­mu­nity mem­bers who have demon­strated hero­ism through extra­or­di­nary acts of courage and kind­ness. We also rec­og­nize stu­dents in grades K-12 who sub­mit entries in our Stu­dent Writ­ing Con­test in which they share sto­ries of heroes in their lives.

The entry dead­line is Mon­day, Octo­ber 15, so please take a few min­utes to sub­mit a nom­i­na­tion for some­one you know who deserves to receive the honor of being named a Hero. Visit us at < www.delco-redcross.org > for Hero Nom­i­na­tion Forms along with the Stu­dent Writ­ing Con­test criteria.

Please sub­mit nom­i­na­tions to Attn: Heroes Com­mit­tee — Amer­i­can Red Cross of Delaware County, 380 Hills–
