The American Red Cross has been there for impacted communities with food, water, shelter and other necessary supplies. Every day, we respond to more than 175 disasters of all sizes that forever change people’s lives. The Red Cross is ready to respond at a moment’s notice, wherever and whenever. But as disasters grow more frequent and intense due to the climate crisis, our need for your support has never been greater. To ensure we have the resources to power our response efforts in the months ahead, we’re setting a goal to raise $150,000 by Saturday at 11:59 p.m., and we’re counting on every compassionate supporter to help us get there. [So, please: Will you give now to help us stay prepared to respond to disasters like tornadoes, storms and home fires? As more and more families count on the Red Cross in their moment of need, your generosity will help them find hope and strength.]( [GIVE NOW]( In just moments, a tornado can leave a family’s home in ruins. A flood can force a whole community to flee. A home fire can take decades of precious memories. No one deserves to experience a disaster alone. And with your support today, we can continue to be there for families with lifesaving relief supplies, a safe place to rest and much-needed compassion. [Please, make a donation to help us reach our $150,000 goal by Saturday night to help families prepare for, respond to and recover from disasters big and small. During someone’s darkest moments, your kindness will be a beacon of hope as they begin down the road to recovery.]( [GIVE NOW]( Thank you for your generous support,  — Your Friends at the American Red Cross [Subscribe]( | [Contact Us]( | [Privacy Policy]( | [Unsubscribe]( | [View in Browser]( Staying in touch via the American Red Cross email list is the best way we have of keeping in regular contact with supporters like you, letting you know about how you can protect yourself and your loved ones from disasters and other emergencies, and how you can support our life-saving work.
