Small or large, every business has an obligation to prepare for emergencies and disasters.  Why?  Because 15-40 percent of businesses fail following a natural or manmade disaster and 94 percent of small business owners believe a disaster could seriously disrupt their business with the next two years.

When disaster strikes, the Red Cross is ready to provide a place to sleep, warm meals, clothing, emotional support and hope to those affected.

We could have just the opportunity you’re looking for ... whether it's training to respond to disasters, supporting a blood drive, delivering messages to members of our military, or connecting families displaced by conflict, we hope you'll join our mission.

We offer training in first aid, CPR/AED, swimming and water safety, care giving and more.

We relay urgent messages between U.S. service members and their families through our global communications.

The American Red Cross is launching a nationwide campaign to reduce the number of home fire deaths and injuries by 25% over the next five years through the Home Fire Preparedness Safety Campaign.

With more than a century of experience, the American Red Cross works with the global Red Cross and Red Crescent network to meet the needs of the world’s most vulnerable communities.
