Our neighbors all across the country are being affected by disasters this year—a record number of tornadoes, the worst flooding in the Midwest in 15 years, an early wildfire season and an active hurricane season. You can change a life, starting with your own, by supporting the American Red Cross Campaign for Disaster Relief, and helping the Red Cross raise $100 million for the Disaster Relief Fund. Your generous donations to the Disaster Relief Fund, depleted as a result of an active year of disasters, allows the Red Cross to mobilize volunteers who provide food, shelter and counseling to people who need it, whenever and wherever disasters occur.

Words of Hope
"We just wanted to THANK the Red Cross volunteers in Seabrook, Texas who came to help us after Hurricane Ike. Your volunteers are awesome and were a welcome sight many days when we were tired and hungry and they showed up with a warm dinner or lunch… My husband and I have seen first hand what the Red Cross does in times of disasters and we hope to be able to make a financial contribution in the near future. Thanks so much." - Dan and Kristi Richardson
