The American Red Cross, a humanitarian organization led by volunteers and guided by its Congressional Charter and the Fundamental Principles of the International Red Cross Movement, will provide relief to victims of disaster and help people prevent, prepare for and respond to emergencies.
The American Red Cross is where people mobilize to help their neighbors—across the street, across the country, and across the world—in emergencies. Each year, in communities large and small, people affected by some 70,000 disasters turn to neighbors familiar and new: the more than half a million volunteers and 35,000 employees of the Red Cross.
To ensure full benefit of this experience by all, our vision is to deliver our products and services in a culturally sensitive and appropriate manner to all we serve. We seek to fully embrace and promote inclusion across our people, products and services, and we integrate diversity into our business strategies and decisions.

Through more than 700 locally supported chapters, more than 15 million people gain the skills they need to prepare for and respond to emergencies in their homes, communities and world.
