  • Regional Annual Report
    2018 REGIONAL ANNUAL REPORT Bringing Communities Hope A Message from the Regional Executive Reflecting on the 2018 Fiscal Year (July 1, 2017 - June 30, 2018), I take great pride in the dedication and spirit of our remarkable American Red Cross volunteers and employees. The year included the most significant disaster season we have seen in over a decade, yet, with the support of our donors and volunteers, we rose to every occasion when called. I owe an enormous debt of gratitude to the commitment and generosity of our donors. Together, we have accomplished so much in our community. Day and night, the Red Cross offered a helping hand and understanding ear to people in Colorado and Wyoming—whether it was bringing relief and hope to families picking up the pieces following a disaster or providing support and care for our military members, veterans and their loved ones. While meeting these immediate needs, trained Red Cross volunteers also partnered with fire departments, community groups and corporations to install free smoke alarms and to teach our neighbors lifesaving preparedness skills in our first annual Sound the Alarm national event. Over a busy year in the Colorado & Wyoming Region, our community volunteers and local partners stepped up time and again, joining with the Red Cross to bring vital assistance to people in need. In this report, you will learn more about the wide variety of work done through your local Red Cross chapters—who bring our mission to life every day. I am grateful to everyone who selflessly contributed their time, expertise and financial resources to support the Red Cross in Fiscal Year 2018.
