DELIVERING RELIEF AND HOPE

As part of the world’s largest humanitarian network, the Red Cross works to prevent and alleviate human suffering in the face of emergencies by mobilizing the power of volunteers and the generosity of donors. The Red Cross responds to about 65,000 disasters every year—that’s a disaster every eight minutes—which range from single-family home fires to multi-state disasters such as hurricanes, storms, wildfires, and more.
