Dear ARCSV youth volunteers,

            Thank you for all of you help this past year! You youth volunteers have shown exemplary dedication and commitment. Youth Services was able to produce many successful events with your help. Although Eboard plans events, they could have never happened without your participation and support. With the strong, energetic, able, willing labor force that you provide, Youth Services has been able to man 10 health fairs, sell hundreds of boxes of See’s Candies, and offer 17 BAT and 50 Safe Kids classes, educating 3894 students. Supporting ARCSV through its lines of services, you have supported our troops by donating comfort items and sending cards showing your appreciation, organized blood drives at your local Red Cross clubs, and trained to become YDAT members. By joining your Red Cross club at school, you have shown great involvement and represent the Red Cross throughout the county. Diligently organizing events such as Refugee Simulation and Ice-Skating Social, we appreciate those of you who have joined committees.
            Because of your enthusiasm and passion for Red Cross, we see you youth volunteers becoming the next leaders in our community. We want to thank you again for a productive year, and we hope you continue to support the Red Cross!

           
Best wishes,
Youth Executive Board (Eboard)
