Courage. Compassion. Heroism. For over a century, the Red Cross has been a community leader in emergency preparedness and response. Our Heroes Breakfasts honor that longstanding tradition of heroism by recognizing local individuals whose extraordinary acts of courage or kindness make them a hero. People in the Puget Sound area make a difference in the lives of others everyday. They show kindness and compassion, and give of themselves in unexpected and extraordinary ways.  The Real Heroes Breakfast March 9, 2010 in Bremerton, honoring heroes from Kitsap and North Mason Counties The Heroes Breakfast March 11, 2010 in Seattle, honoring heroes from King County
