Our Red (Cross) Carpet Debut!

A while back, I told you about Kathy Ryan, a runner who collapsed during Hood to Coast, Oregon's most famous relay race. The team that saved Kathy's life was honored at our Breakfast of Champions and I let drop that there was a film in the works that would include her story and a CPR class taught to her team of runners by our very own Francisco Ianni.

Well, it's official..."Hood To Coast" is complete and Francisco made the final cut! What's more, the fine film folks were nice enough to put together a short clip that highlights Kathy's story and our efforts to get more people trained in CPR. Check it out!

While you can't see the full film quite yet, we're looking forward to a team movie night on 1-1-11, when it will be theaters nationwide for one night only. Wouldn't it be cool if every Red Cross chapter went out that night to support the film and its life-saving message? Francisco would be so proud...
