Breakfast will honor community heroes
Published: March 14, 2005
All of us have heroes in our lives. They are the ones who truly make a difference in our world. They perform great acts of kindness, heroism and compassion. They show courage, spirit, perseverance, commitment, pride and honor. They give of themselves in unexpected and amazing ways. They make our communities better places to live.
The seven heroes are Dr. Griffin Dalianis, Military Hero; Abbie Graves, Youth Hero; Diane Denver, First Responder Hero; Angela Canto, Good Samaritan Hero; Irene Bouchard, Medical Hero; Team Mitch (Lynda Kelly and dog Mitch, and Marcia Donaldson), Community Impact Hero; Steve Hagan, vice president at Oracle Corporation, Greater Nashua & Souhegan Valley Chapter Philanthropist Hero of the Year.
On Tuesday, March 29, the American Red Cross will recognize these seven special individuals from Greater Nashua and the Souhegan Valley area for their heroic accomplishments at the Heroes Breakfast at the Crowne Plaza. Greg Navarro from the New England Cable Network will be the master of ceremonies and Gov. Lynch has been invited to the breakfast.
The American Red Cross provides relief to victims of disaster and helps people prevent, prepare for and respond to emergencies. The American Red Cross is always there when needed - 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
The Heroes Breakfast celebrates others who respond when they are needed, people who exemplify the humanitarian mission of the American Red Cross. The breakfast is also a fund-raiser to support the American Red Cross’ local emergency services programs. Kaley Foundation, of Milford, is the lead sponsor for the event.
The American Red Cross received more than 30 nominations. An independent selection committee narrowed the nominations down to seven heroes to be recipients of the 2005 Red Cross Heroes Award in seven separate categories.
