March 24, 2011 - On Friday March 18, the Crisis Center received a nice surprise. When the doorbell rang, we thought it was a client at the door but it turned out to be Corby Alexander and Bonham Mayor Roy Floyd. They had come to personally present a check to Executive Director Becky Williams.

Donations are a huge part of the Crisis Center budget and always appreciated. Thank you to the City of Bonham for your support.

If you need help or know someone who needs help, you can reach our office at 903-583-7694. As always, for emergencies, the hotline at 903-583-7000 is answered 24 hours a day by trained advocates.

March 24, 2011 - The Texoma Area Chapter of The American Red Cross provides emergency services, shelters, and medications to victims of disasters in Cooke, Grayson and Fannin counties without charge. The Chapter also provides training in CPR, swimming, babysitting classes and shelter operation to name just a few.

To offset the cost of these operations, the Texoma Chapter is holding one of its three major fundraising events April 15-17 in the old J C Penny's building at the Midway Mall in Sherman. The annual garage sale has grown every year due to the generosity of the people of Cooke, Grayson, and Fannin counties. Once again the Red Cross is seeking donations for the upcoming sale.
