Nominate Your Hero

Tell us about your hero!

Heroes are everywhere, if you take the time to look. In particular, the Red Cross wishes to recognize:

PUBLIC SAFETY PROFESSIONALS: Health-care, military or public safety professionals who go above and beyond to answer the call to service. Think of the EMTs, doctors, nurses, police, firefighters, soldiers, sailors, Marines, Guardsmen or airmen you know.

GOOD CITIZENS: People who display exceptional courage or dedication to a greater cause. Think of your friends and neighbors who devote their time and talent to serving the community.

Tell us about YOUR hero!
