Red Cross Information Session - 1/25

As the New Year approaches we’d like to take a moment to thank you for being a part of the American Red Cross family and to invite you to an upcoming event in Columbia County. Without your time and energy, we wouldn't be able to make life better and safer in Columbia County. Over ninety percent of Red Cross programs and services in Columbia County are delivered by volunteers. Because of the work of the Northern Columbia Rotary, we are able to fulfill our life-saving mission. So, thank you for all you do for my community and for the American Red Cross of Northeastern New York.

After the ice storms of last year, a number of residents and organizations in the county have contacted the Red Cross to find out how they can help us prepare for, prevent and respond to local disasters. In response to these calls, we are holding a county-wide event on Monday, January 25th from 7 to 8:30 pm at the Ichabod Crane Middle School in Valatie, NY to inform residents about the many ways they can become involved with the Red Cross. So we’d like to invite you, your members and their friends, families, neighbors and co-workers to join us on January 25th to learn more about the many rewarding American Red Cross volunteer opportunities.

Best wishes for a Healthy and Happy New Year!
