Donor Information

The American Red Cross is not a government agency and all Red Cross disaster assistance is free, thanks to the generosity of people like you.

92 cents of every dollar donated to the American Red Cross is spent on programs and services that help people in need. What's more, the value of your donation is increased by the fact that the ratio of volunteer Red Cross workers to paid staff is almost 14 to one.

The best way to help a disaster victim is through a financial donation to the American Red Cross. Financial contributions allow the Red Cross to purchase exactly what is needed for the disaster relief operation. Monetary donations also enable the Red Cross to purchase relief supplies close to the disaster site which avoids delays and transportation costs in getting basic necessities to disaster victims. Because the affected community has generally experienced significant economic loss, purchasing relief supplies in or close to the disaster and providing assistance to victims of the disaster through our cash voucher system also helps to stimulate the weakened local economy.
