Heroes Breakfast
The Montgomery-Floyd Chapter of the American Red Cross is hosting the first Hero’s Breakfast for the New River Valley. We are looking for local heroes who have saved a life, performed an act of courage or offered a valuable service to the community.
We want to honor and celebrate these individuals at a Heroes Breakfast event. This will be a community awards program to honor these Heroes.
Heroes will be recognized in five categories this year:
- Community Impact: An individual who made a positive difference in our community.
- Good Samaritan: Someone who acted selflessly in helping another in need.
- Disaster Response: An individual who exhibited outstanding efforts in response to natural disaster or assisting victims in an emergency situation (including social or financial assistance).
- First Responder: EMS, fire or law enforcement personnel who acted above and beyond the call of duty.
- Workplace: An individual or group who provided leadership and encouraged community effort in prevention, preparation, or response to an emergency situation.
