This week, we were pleased to recognize two volunteers for their extraordinary service to the Kentucky Red Cross. Congratulations to Marcia Brey and Sally Higgins for receiving this recognition and representing the Kentucky Region as nominees for the National Red Cross Presidential Award.

| Marcia Brey |
Marcia, from Louisville, is truly a volunteer who leads by example. Marcia is as comfortable leading the Louisville Area Chapter board as she is going out into the community to install smoke alarms. She is both a high level strategist and a boots on the ground doer. This is a rare quality that makes her invaluable to the organization. As an engineer for GE Appliances, she has combined her eye for detail with her heart for service to organize and lead seven smoke alarm installation events over the past few years. This is unprecedented throughout the region, division and across the country.

Our second recipient, Sally, is from the Frankfort area and is active throughout the region as a Disaster Services volunteer. There’s not much that she doesn’t have her hand in. The Kentucky Red Cross depends on her as an instructor, as someone who responds to disasters big and small, and as a mentor and guide to our new volunteers. Her peers know her as someone who expects a lot from herself, from others and from the Red Cross. She brings out the best in others and propels us all to be better at fulfilling the mission of the Red Cross.
Thank you, Marcia and Sally, for all you do here at the Red Cross!
