Thanks for Giving This holiday season, the American Red Cross extends our thanks for your generous support. Disasters strike every day in America. With your incredible support, the Gaston County chapter has been able to provide assistance to your neighbors in need throughout the year. As Chairman of your local Red Cross, I’m extraordinarily grateful to be associated with an organization that makes a difference in our community every day. With your help, the American Red Cross responded to more than 73,000 local disasters across the country last year, 67,000 of them home fires. Home fires devastate nearly 75 families a year in Gaston County, North Carolina. With your continued support and contributions of time, blood and money, the American Red Cross will stand ready to help your neighbors in their time of need. Your local Red Cross is also teaching CPR classes, collecting lifesaving blood, helping members of the military stay connected and helping communities near or far during a time of crisis. It is only through your incredible generosity of spirit that the [name] Red Cross stands ready, offering all of these services free of charge, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The American Red Cross helps individuals, families and communities become prepared for disasters and other life-threatening emergencies. We couldn’t help our neighbors without you. Thanks for Giving.
