Your gift enables Red Cross volunteers and staff to make a meaningful difference — bringing comfort, relief and hope to neighbors facing their most difficult moments.
The Red Cross of King County is more than an organization—it’s a movement of over 1,200 volunteers. We are woven into the fabric of every community through disaster preparedness, response and recovery, lifesaving blood services, and community training programs. We care for the humanitarian needs of the U.S. military community through every phase of duty, both at home and around the world. But above all, we listen, we care, and we act—partnering with local organizations to reach those who need help the most. Serving more than 2.3 million people across King County, we mobilize community to serve community, driven by compassion and the belief that no one should face an emergency alone.
