Every day, ordinary people make extraordinary contributions by putting their needs aside to help others in our community. The American Red Cross is honored to salute these unsung heroes in our Annual Heroes Celebration.

Your hero might be a lifeguard who saved a drowning child, an ordinary citizen who performed CPR when a stranger collapsed at a shopping mall, or someone who saved a neighbor’s beloved pets from a fire.

Counties host their own Celebration in which they honor the prior year’s local heroes for using their First Aid, CPR, AED training and/or other actions to save lives or make the county a better place to live and work.

This spring we have several events throughout the region.  Click on your local Heroes event for more information, to nominate a hero, sponsor the event, or to purchase tickets.
