RED CROSS SEEKS ACE SPONSORS

By Loren Penman

The Genesee County Chapter of the American Red Cross needs your help!  

Sadly, our services have been utilized more than ever recently in 

responding to numerous fires, facilitating communication between military 

personnel and their families, and serving the community by teaching CPR,

first aid, emergency preparedness, babysitting, and learn-to-swim classes. 

 

We understand the challenges of these difficult economic times; we face 

them, too.  In order to keep up with our expenses, the Chapter is planning 

only one major fundraiser for the entire fiscal year:  the 14th Annual 19th 

Hole Golf Raffle on Saturday evening, May 30, 2009 at BWʼs Restaurant 

(Davisʼ Countryside Meadows) in Pavilion.  We are calling upon our good 

friends across Genesee County to support our efforts. 

 

This year we will recognize contributions of $200 or more to this event by businesses or individuals with a “Red Cross Ace” designation on all advertising for the Golf Raffle (unless, of course, you donʼt wish to be recognized in this way).  Donations can be monetary or in the form of gift cards/certificates/services, but they must be received no later than March 31st in order to be included in the Ace advertising. 

 

Of course, we are grateful for all gifts, regardless of the size or amount.  

Call the Red Cross office at 343-6098, and a member of the Golf Raffle 

Committee will come to you to pick up your contribution. 

 

Thank you in advance for your support.  Please know that you are making 

a difference in our community with your gift!
