Some Red Crossers are more eager to give than to recieve this holiday season. Chisholm Trail Chapter leadership society members will host a holiday gift drive on Saturday, December 12, 2009 at our chapter office to show their support of service members stationed at Fort Hood. These American Red Cross supporters will be donating and wrapping gifts for infants, toddlers, school-aged children and teenagers.
Members of the Chisholm Trail Chapters Tiffany Circle Society of Women Leaders came up with the service project idea and have been heavily involved with the planning of the event. They will be joined by other local American Red Cross supporters for this service project that will benefit the Fort Hood community. “The American Red Cross has been providing support to service members, veterans and their families for more than 100 years, and this project is an extension of our commitment to those who serve,” said Alyson Barber, Service to the Armed Forces Manager.
“It is such a joy to be able to help these families in some small way,” said Alice Puente, Chisholm Trail Chapter Tiffany Circle Co-Chair. “They have been through so much this year and deserve to have a wonderful holiday.” The Tiffany Circle Society is a powerful leadership network of women who give their time, talent and treasure in support of the American Red Cross.
Tiffany Circle members Lou Martin and Katie Kalpakis will join Chisholm Trail Chapter Board Member Barbara Smyers to deliver the gifts to Fort Hood following the event.
