Since 1917, the American Red Cross has dedicated itself to engaging, inspiring, educating and serving Kentucky and Southern Indiana. The Wrapped in Red Gala is an annual fundraiser that celebrates the lifesaving mission of the American Red Cross and raises vital funds to support Red Cross programs and services.

Your support enables our workforce- more than 90 percent volunteers- to prevent and alleviate human suffering in the face of emergencies. All proceeds benefit Red Cross community programs.

We are collecting premier auction items and experiences. Questions about donating, sponsorships, or tables can be sent to Alycia Ward at 502-200-3410 or alycia.ward@redcross.org.
