Thank you for joining us at the 2023 Brave Hearts Gala, supporting the mission of the Red Cross and celebrating individuals who have prevented life-threatening situations from occurring, come to the aid of another, or contributed to the safety of our community through a single act or ongoing activity.

This event had now ended, but we hope to see you again next year!
