The York-Adams County Chapter American Red Cross has honored the everyday people in our community who have made a difference—from saving a life to dedicating countless hours to a special cause—real, local heroes.

The concept for the Heroes of York & Adams Counties breakfast grew from a desire to develop an event that was closely related to the mission of the American Red Cross – teaching people to save lives.  The Red Cross provides relief to victims of disasters and helps people prevent, prepare for, and respond to emergencies. Across the nation, over one million Red Cross volunteers do this each day. We hope you can join us to celebrate this spirit of humanitarianism, honoring those individuals who have shown courage, kindness, and unselfish character by their acts of heroism in our community.
