American Red Cross:

America's spirit shines when everyday people do extraordinary things. This is the spirit that shines in the work of the American Red Cross. Every day, the Red Cross and its volunteers work to save lives or rebuild lives that have been shattered by disaster — down the street, across the country and around the world.

Our community and our nation depend on the Red Cross in times of need, and the Red Cross depends on the support of the American people to achieve its mission. Be there to empower our neighbors with tools that will prepare them for emergencies in their home, the workplace or school. Join the Heroes Campaign today!

The American Red Cross is not a government agency and all Red Cross disaster assistance is free thanks to the generosity of people like you. The value of your donation is increased by the fact that the ratio of volunteer Red Cross workers to paid staff is more than 15 to 1. Contributions to the American Red Cross, a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, are deductible for computing income and estate taxes.
