On behalf of member
employees, the Board of Trustees of the Employees Community Fund of
Boeing Alabama recently awarded a grant in the amount of $8,430 to
the Tennessee Valley Region of the American Red Cross. Funding will
be used to purchase cots and blankets utilized in mass sheltering
operations following the aftermath of a disaster. The areas
specifically impacted by this donation include the Alabama counties
of Colbert, DeKalb, Franklin, Jackson, Lauderdale, Lawrence,
Limestone, Madison, Marshall, Morgan and the Southern Tennessee
counties of Lincoln and Lawrence. The American Red Cross Chapters
and the people they serve will directly benefit from this generous
contribution.

The
United We Serve
program helped
involve more people
in volunteering at
the American Red
Cross, with a
notable increase in
young volunteers, in
particular, since
the launch of the
initiative in late
June. The United We
Serve initiative to
promote greater
public service
culminated on
Friday, September
11, with a National
Day of Service and
Remembrance.
“I truly appreciate
the opportunities
the national service
initiative
provided,” said Gail
McGovern, president
and CEO of the
American Red Cross.
“United We Serve has
allowed us to draw
attention to the Red
Cross mission and to
attract new
volunteers,
particularly young
people.”
