HEADLINES

EVERY 80 SECONDS

House fires happen every 80 seconds.  Victims can lose everything. See for yourself how it feels to experience a disaster first hand and how you can help.

 
MISSION  OF THE
AMERICAN RED CROSS

The American Red Cross, a humanitarian organization led by volunteers and guided by its Congressional Charter and the Fundamental Principles of the International Red Cross Movement, will provide relief to victims of disasters and help people prevent, prepare for, and respond to emergencies.

January is National Blood Donor Month

The American Red Cross needs to collect 22,000 units of blood each weekday and around 15,000 units each weekend to meet patient needs. Every two seconds, someone needs blood.

Learn About Blood

  • Individuals  who are 17 years of age (16 with parental permission in some states), meet height and weight requirements (110 pounds or more, depending on their height), and who are generally in good health may be eligible to donate blood.

  Please call 1-800-RED CROSS or click here to find a convenient blood donation location and to schedule a lifesaving blood donation appointment.

Thank you from your American Red Cross and the hospital patients we serve.
