Not all heroes wear capes.
The annual American Red Cross Arkansas Heroes Celebration Luncheon returns on Friday, March 4, at the Little Rock Marriott Hotel. The event is one that honors real-life Arkansan heroes who have gone above and beyond their duties to save lives.
No, these heroes don’t all serve as professional first responders. The list also includes a middle school student, co-workers and family members, all people who prevented serious harm or saved lives thanks the skills the Red Cross prizes and promotes: situational awareness, disaster education and health and safety training.
This year’s American Red Cross Clara Barton Distinguished Humanitarian of the Year award recipient is Nabholz Construction Services of Conway.
The event lasts from 11:30 a.m.- 1 p.m. For further information on the luncheon, click here, or contact Autumn Jacob at (501) 748-1012 or autumn.jacob@redcross.org.
