Lindenwood University was honored with the American Red Cross Community Cares Award on February 6 during a luncheon at Stegton Regency Conference and Banquet Center.
Lindenwood was a recipient of the award, which was also received by the Francis Howell School District and the Howell Foundation. Lindenwood was also considered for being the first university in St. Louis to incorporate online learning credit for CPR and first aid.
“I was certainly pleased and honored to receive this outstanding award with so many outstanding efforts from the community,” said Sheryl Guffey, the Executive Director of American Humanics.
The luncheon was held to recognize over 200 volunteers in the St. Charles area. The event began with the welcoming speech, which was given by Michael Newport, the American Red Cross St. Louis Area Chapter Chairman. Pastor Bob Farr presented the invocation from the Church of the Shepherd, and the Lindenwood Vocal Spectrum provided the entertainment. Joseph White, the Chief Executive Officer of the St. Louis American Red Cross Chapter, was asked to be the guest speaker for the luncheon.
