WHEREAS, this March, we celebrate American Red Cross Month by recognizing the compassionate acts of people in Riverside County and by renewing our commitment to lend a helping hand to our neighbors in need; and
WHEREAS, since Clara Barton founded the American Red Cross more than 140 years ago, generation after generation has stepped up to deliver relief and care across our country and around the world, bringing out the best of humanity in times of crisis; and WHEREAS, advancing this noble mission, the volunteers, blood and platelet donors, and supporters who now give back through the American Red Cross of Riverside County remain unwavering in their commitment to prevent and alleviate human suffering in the face of today’s emergencies; and
WHEREAS, their voluntary and generous contributions shine a beacon of hope in people’s darkest hours whether it’s delivering shelter, food and comfort during disasters; providing critical blood donations for hospital patients; supporting service members, veterans and their families; saving lives with first aid, CPR, AED and other skills; or delivering international aid and reconnecting loved ones separated by global crises; and
WHEREAS, this work to uplift our community is truly made possible by those who selflessly answer the call to help, whenever and wherever it’s needed. We hereby recognize this month of March in honor of their remarkable service, and we ask everyone to join in their commitment to care for one another; and
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Menifee, does hereby proclaim the month of March 2025 as Red Cross Month, and encourage all citizens of the City of Menifee to reach out and support its humanitarian mission.
