The American Red Cross Serving Oklahoma is responsible for the safety and preparedness of Oklahomans living in 77 counties.
The Red Cross responds to a disaster nearly every day-- primarily home fires to provide immediate comfort, immediate care, and immediate assistance to families when they need it most.
In the days following a disaster, the Red Cross provides mental health counseling, cleaning supplies, basic kitchen wares and assistance with replacing critical medications and medical equipment such as canes, hearing aids and dentures. The Red Cross also provides financial help with first month’s rent and security deposits as needed.
The Red Cross also teaches people how to save lives through CPR, First Aid, AED and aquatics training. We bring military families closer together, delivering critical family emergency messages to Oklahomans serving in the U.S. Armed Forces and providing support for their families here at home.

The services we provide to our communities are possible only through the work of volunteers and generous financial donations from companies, foundations and individuals and we are grateful for all of those who support the American Red Cross and its humanitarian mission.
The American Red Cross serving Oklahoma is able to provide the immediate disaster relief to neighbors in need due to continued and generous support of businesses small and large across the state, including many across the nation with and without local connections. Their support is provided through financial donations directly or through employee and customer giving programs and with event sponsorships.
Donations of professional services through employee volunteer programs, as well as the donation of specific in-kind items enable Red Cross to deliver immediate disaster relief to residents across the state after disasters.
We thank our disaster partners for their concern of all of our neighbors, the recognition of the need to be prepared for response before disaster strikes and for their incredible support and expertise to keep the Red Cross prepared and ready to respond to the call for help where ever and whenever it comes.
