For Non-Government Organizations, such as The American Red Cross, donations from ordinary members of the public are vital. Without them, these charities could not continue to provide the various programs and services that aid so many people in our communities. The help provided comes in many forms including shelter, clothing, blood, and emergency training. This assistance is particularly important following major disasters such as Hurricane Katrina. Members of the public can donate in many ways. One way is to donate car or other vehicle. To do this, simply ring The American Red Cross and within 24-48 hours your vehicle will be collected.
This month, the Mountain Area Chapter of The American Red Cross, situated in Asheville, North Carolina, is holding a special fundraising event. The “Under The Silver Moon Gala” will be held on the 21st of March at Deerpark on the Biltmore Estate. Tickets are $125 per person and include dinner, entertainment, and the opportunity to participate in both silent and live auctions. The auctions feature artwork by well-known American artists, fabulous trips, and dining delights. For more information, visit the Mountain Area Chapter webpage.
Saturday the 28th of March is ‘CPR Saturday’ throughout the Mountain Area Chapter. This is the one day of the year on which the Chapter waives the usual $35 fee for CPR training. Last year, over 300 individuals took advantage of this opportunity and received certified training. Classes teach CPR training for both adults and infants, and are held in both English and Spanish. The Chapter webpage provides a list of training locations in Buncombe, Henderson, McDowell, Haywood, Transylvania, and Polk. People who are interested in receiving this training should note that reservations are required.
The Mountain Area Chapter is just one of many Chapters of The American Red Cross situated throughout the United States. All of them regularly hold events such as those listed above.
