Jay Bonafede's Red Cross Story:
I've had the pleasure of working for the Red Cross for a year and a half now, and I'm still moved by the power of this organization. Just by walking up to scene of a fire wearing that Red Cross vest, you can feel the sense of relief from that family with nowhere else to turn, knowing that now someone is there to help. I'm honored to be a very small part of an organization that helps make Western New York a better place every day.
how will I tell you my story and remain anonymous if I post my name number of email ?
ReplyDeleteThat's a great question. The only person who will ever see where any emails came from is our Communications Coordinator, Jay Bonafede. I (Jay) print only the body of the email (no sender info) to show to the rest of the team judging the competition, and that's all that we would ever publish.
DeleteWe do need your email or other contact info in order to make arrangements to get you your BASH tickets if you win, but you can rest assured that's all it will be used for. If you have any other questions, you can email me at the address above or call me at (716) 878-2372. We look forward to hearing everyone's stories. Good luck!
