Laura Loughridge Wargo Named Chief Development Officer for American Red Cross - Southeastern Michigan Chapter
Date:4/16/2008

Solid experience and fresh perspective expected to revitalize fundraising

DETROIT, April 16 /PRNewswire/ -- The American Red Cross - Southeastern Michigan Chapter is pleased to announce Laura Loughridge Wargo as the new Chief Development Officer.
