The Tiffany Circle Summit was an opportunity for 300 Tiffany Circle members and American Red Cross chapter leaders from around the country to come together to hear from renowned speakers, network and discuss ways to support the American Red Cross. During the two-day event, attendees heard from Kimberly Dozier, who covers intelligence and counterterrorism issues for the Associated Press, U.S. Army Sgt. Dennet Oregon, a Wounded Warrior from the Afghanistan War, and U.S. Army Lt. Gen. Kathleen Gainey, Director of Logistics for The Joint Staff, and political reporter Judy Woodruff. The opening dinner was hosted by actress Elisabeth Rohm.
“I’m very proud to be a Tiffany Circle member,” Surratt said. “Meeting such talented, savvy, intelligent and philanthropic women from across the country who care and support the Red Cross as much as I do was truly the highlight of the summit.”
Surratt was joined by fellow Tiffany Circle member Sonya Sawyer, chief financial officer of Home-Tech, and Susan Bonanno, Heidi Ruster, Kari Hennagin and Deanna Cleary of the Lee and Collier County American Red Cross chapters.
