"Simon Roofing has a rich history in the Mahoning Valley, as does the American Red Cross," said Rachel D'Attoma, executive director of the Red Cross of Greater Akron and the Mahoning Valley. "They embody the mission of our organization, and we are proud to present them with the Spirit of The Red Cross Award."
