Red Cross Month Kickoff Event @ Battleship New Jersey

This March, the American Red Cross New Jersey Region is honoring those who make its mission possible during the 80th annual American Red Cross Month celebration — a national tradition that began in 1943 when President Franklin D. Roosevelt issued the first Red Cross Month proclamation.

The New Jersey Region will celebrate with their volunteers as they kick off Red Cross Month onboard the Battleship New Jersey on Sunday, March 5 at 11am on the ship’s fantail (rear deck).

Guest speakers will include

  • Capt. Warren D. Judge, Commanding Officers, Coast Guard Training Center Cape May
  • Honorable Victor G. Carstarohen, Mayor of the City of Camden
  • Melinda Kane, Commission, Camden County Board of Commissioners

The event is free for guests to attend.

The Battleship will be lit red throughout the month of March for Red Cross Month
