About
the American Red Cross: The American Red Cross shelters, feeds and
counsels victims of disasters; provides nearly half of the nation's blood
supply; teaches lifesaving skills; and supports military members and their
families. The Red Cross is a charitable organization - not a government agency
- and depends on volunteers and the generosity of the American public to
perform its humanitarian mission. For more information, please visit
