Our
job is never done - people always need us - every
single day. Please help us continue our lifesaving
work, with a secure
online gift today!
While
large disasters capture the headlines, it is more
important than ever to support your local Red Cross
in their daily work. In just the last year, Red
Cross chapters around the country have responded
to more than 70,000 disasters, such as house and
apartment fires.
They
also are training staff and volunteers in emergency
preparedness, teaching first aid and CPR classes
and delivering messages for members of the Armed
Forces and their families as well as collecting
lifesaving blood.
Your
contribution means that we can continue to provide
these vital services. Your gift
today, will provide hope and relief tomorrow.
Financial
contributions to the American Red Cross are tax-deductible.
