Executive Summary:

 

WHEREAS, during American Red Cross Month in March, we recognize the compassion in Lake County and reaffirm our commitment to care for one another in times of crisis; and

WHEREAS, today, kindhearted individuals in our community exemplify Barton’s commitment as they step up through the Red Cross to provide a beacon of hope for our neighbors in need, through voluntary and selfless contributions, whether it’s delivering shelter, food, and comfort during disasters, providing critical blood donations for hospital patients, supporting military families, veterans, and caregivers through the unique challenges of service, saving lives with first aid and CPR, or delivering aid and reconnecting loved ones separated by global disaster; and

WHEREAS, we recognize this month of March in honor of all those who lead with their hearts to serve people in need, and we ask everyone to join in this commitment to strengthen our community.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT PROCLAIMED that the Board of Supervisors of the County of Lake does hereby proclaim March 2024 as Red Cross Month and encourage all citizens of Lake County to reach out and support its humanitarian mission.
