Make a gift to support Red Cross volunteers providing comfort and hope to families in need
James, imagine having your life turned upside down by a disaster. One minute, you are spending time with your loved ones, and the next, you are forced to flee your home.
Every eight minutes, this is a reality for families across the country. But thanks to the compassion of Red Cross volunteers, communities don’t have to go through this difficult time alone.
As Volunteer Appreciation Month comes to a close, we need your help building up vital resources that will power the work of our dedicated volunteers today and in the coming months. Will you donate today to help support our volunteers as they deliver lifesaving care to those in need across the country?
Already this year, we’ve seen firsthand the impact of disasters on families and communities across the country. Amidst the devastation, our volunteers have offered comfort, support and hope. They’ve worked tirelessly to provide essential relief items, warm meals and much-needed emotional support to those in need.
Powerful storms resulted in deadly flooding, power outages and mudslides throughout California. Over 1,800 Red Cross volunteers have supported those affected with a safe place to stay, hot meals and lifesaving services.
Our volunteers rely on us to provide resources and training so they can support families affected by disasters. Your gift today ensures that volunteers can be on the ground to:
Supply nourishing meals for five people: $55
Support a family in urgent need for one day: $95
Support a family in urgent need for one day: $95
Provide cleanup kits after a disaster strikes: $130
Deploy an emergency response vehicle for a day: $360
When families are affected by disasters, our volunteers are there to offer a shoulder to lean on, a listening ear and a helping hand. They provide comfort, care and support to those most in need.
Before midnight tonight, please, James, rush a donation now and help us support our volunteers on the ground helping after disasters.
