They continue to be steadfast partners of the Red Cross, most recently supporting communities impacted by Hurricane Ida in 2021 and Hurricane Ian in 2022.

Humanitarian Award
Barbara and Robbie Donno

The Humanitarian Award is given to those who have demonstrated enduring support to causes that lift up the quality of human life and alleviate suffering for those in need. The honorees are individuals whose efforts support the values of the Red Cross and inspire others to do the same. Through a long history of acts of personal and financial generosity and sacrifice the awardees have made a meaningful difference in the lives of others.

Good Samaritan Hero
Kevin Rivera

Kevin Rivera, a former Amazon delivery driver, bravely rescued a family of six and their two pets from a house fire while on his delivery route in Syosset, NY last September. Kevin saw that one of the houses he often delivered to was on fire and called 911 before rushing inside to help. Despite a language barrier, Kevin managed to communicate with the family and led them to safety.
