Retail businesses, banks and online providers nationwide are stepping forward to show their support of the lifesaving relief that the American Red Cross is providing to people in need following this disaster as well as emerging human needs resulting from this tragedy. These businesses are providing a convenient means for their customers or online visitors to join this effort as well. Shoppers in any of the participating retail locations can make a contribution to the American Red Crossc Liberty Disaster Relief Fund at cash registers in the stores. Visitors to any participating Web sites can make secure, online credit card donations to the American Red Cross Liberty Disaster Relief Fund.
Currently, the best way to help American Red Cross disaster relief efforts is by making a cash donation. The American Red Cross cannot accept or solicit small, individual donations or collections of items for emergency relief purposes at these official sites.
