Throughout 2001, sixteen individuals, two Idaho businesses, a group of high school students, a senior citizens group, along with dozens of Red Cross volunteers received the Spirit of Idaho Award. Their efforts ranged from domestic violence prevention and awareness to food drives to economic development. Idaho Red Cross volunteers spent hundreds of hours working with those affected by the events of 9/11. It is an honor to provide recognition for these outstanding Idahoans.
