“As I parked the vehicle and stepped out, I heard those on cell phones saying 'The Red Cross is here, the Red Cross is here' with relief in their voices…In that moment, the mission and the power of the Red Cross became real.” -- from AmeriCorps Together We Prepare member Mike Lyon’s story

When an emergency strikes, it is the mission of the Red Cross to be there. When a family stands on their lawn, watching their house destroyed by fire, or a family needs to contact their deployed military loved one during a crisis, the Red Cross is a beacon of hope.

Each year, thousands of people in our community are served through our Disaster Relief services, our Transportation services, Services to the Armed Forces, and International Services. Whether it’s a phone call to a deployed service family member when emergency strikes at home, or a ride to a dialysis appointment when there is nowhere else to turn, your local Red Cross is there, turning a life in crisis into a life of hope.
