On April 19, 2012 Brian Anderson received the Chicago Red Cross Heroes Award for Citizenship at a breakfast event held at the Fairmont Hotel. It was a terrific morning of celebration, inspiration and reflection for the 800 people in attendance. A highlight of the event was the video interview shown before each award was presented.
Brian humbly accepted the award, thanking his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for taking him on this journey and allowing him to see others through His eyes. He also thanked those who supported Shepherd’s HOPE with their prayers and donations.
