Greetings!
This month’s Emergency Services (ES) Newsletter
begins with a tribute to the people who make our
work possible - Red Cross volunteers. We are
fortunate to have more than 1,000 volunteers here in
ES, and we have put them to work in the last year.
Our recent Celebration of Volunteers was a way to
say thank you for your hard work.
You’ll also learn how our region is preparing for
disaster, pick up some Fire Safety tips and meet
some new staff. Enjoy!
Sincerely,
Maureen Tomoschuk
Senior Director, Emergency Services
American Red Cross
