As recent disasters have shown, the American Red Cross is absolutely indispensible to helping communities respond throughout our Nation.
One Red Cross
To deliver on our mission, we continually look for ways to provide the best service delivery while making the best use of our donor dollars.
One Red Cross
Despite our efforts, and the generosity of our donors, we still face financial challenges ahead.
One Red Cross
Continuing on our past path was
not an option. We needed to find new ways to streamline the organization and grow more sustained revenues.
One Red Cross 2011
As we make these changes, we will not decrease our level of service or move away from our core mission.
One Red Cross 2011 - 2012
We are transforming the Red Cross today to ensure we can be there tomorrow.
