Who is RESCU |
The board members and volunteers of the
RESCU Foundation were or are participants of Renaissance
Faires or have a connection that compels them to serve tirelessly
so this organization can thrive. The board of the RESCU
Foundation spends an incredible amount of volunteer hours
assuring RESCUs role in the future. They do everything
that needs to be done, through heartache and pressure. But
this aspiration cannot be done without assistance. RESCU
is for you, and YOU make RESCU go round. There would not
be a RESCU Foundation without all of those listed below.
