Become a Hero

Support the Life-saving Programs and Services of Your Red Cross

HEROES campaigns are exciting three-week, community-based fundraisers that support the life-saving programs and services of the American Red Cross, Northeast Kentucky Chapter.

Here’s how they work:

• Local residents volunteer to be Red Cross HEROES. Each HERO pledges to raise and/or donate $1000 for the Northeast Kentucky Chapter (approximately 65 HEROES are recruited in each county).
• HEROES can raise their contribution in their own creative way – by holding bake sales or car washes, collecting donations from friends or family, or by simply donating personal funds.
• Sponsors in each community help jump-start the campaign with lead gifts and help underwrite the cost of HEROES special events.
• At the end of the campaign, the HEROES, workers, sponsors and community supporters are recognized for their contributions to the work of the Red Cross.

Participating in a HEROES Campaign is a great way to help Northeast Kentucky Chapter meet its commitment to the community, both now and in the future. All donations support Red Cross programs and services.
