Each year, the American Red Cross immediately responds to nearly 66,000 disasters around the country— from home fires to tornadoes and severe winter weather, hurricanes and floods to transportation accidents and explosions. The Red Cross not only provides food, shelter and clothing, but also offers comfort and care to help those affected by disaster during their time of greatest need. Members of our Annual Disaster Giving Program (ADGP) and Disaster Responder Program pre-invest in disaster relief, ensuring the Red Cross can pre-position supplies, secure shelters, maintain vehicles and train volunteers nationwide, so we’re always ready to respond, day and night. This support also means we can remain on hand to assist people as they recover and help become better prepared for the next disaster.

Donors that commit $250,000 or more annually to Red Cross Disaster Relief are recognized as Annual Disaster Giving Program (ADGP) or Disaster Responder Program members, based on their giving level, and receive significant access to Nationwide Red Cross benefits, information and decision-makers.

Every day, the American Red Cross assists people who face disasters. We secure food and lodging for the family affected by a home fire. We provide clean-up supplies to the couple whose basement was flooded. We give the child who has lost everything the immediate psychological care he or she needs and a toy to call their own.

We have prevented and relieved suffering, one day at a time, for more than 130 years. In this period, we have served millions of people during their most desperate times. They lived in small towns and big cities across the United States and around the world.

Wherever they were, they had one thing in common. They knew where to turn when disaster struck. They knew that—365 days a year—the American Red Cross was ready to help.
