Real Heroes Breakfast

Visual Technologies is a proud supporter of the American Red Cross event, the Real Heroes Breakfast. The 11^th Annual event will take place on Wednesday, December 2, 2009, from 7:30 to 9:00 a.m., at the OnCenter Convention Center Complex in Syracuse. This is one of the many American Red Cross events that Visual Technologies takes part in being a sponsor.

The Real Heroes Breakfast grew out of a desire to sponsor an event closely related to the mission of the American Red Cross. The Red Cross provides relief to victims of disasters and helps people prevent, prepare for, and respond to emergencies. This is done through the simple, yet powerful, process of one person putting their needs aside to help another. Across the nation, over one million Red Cross volunteers do this each day.

Here in Onondaga and Oswego Counties, dedicated volunteers contribute their time and energies to assisting those in need. In order to celebrate this spirit of humanitarism, the Onondaga-Oswego Chapter of the American Red Cross hosts an event that honors individuals who have shown courage, dedication and unselfish character by their acts of heroism in our community.
