Our deadline is Friday...

We still need your help to reach our $150,000 — goal to respond to winter disasters nationwide. [American Red Cross]( Dear {NAME}, Surviving a severe winter storm can be an isolating and lonely experience. Without heat, power or any way of contacting the outside world, families often have no choice but to weather the freezing temperatures until help arrives. In these dark moments, the American Red Cross is there, offering shelter-stays with blankets, meals, emotional support and a safe place to stay. These continued efforts are made possible by the generosity of supporters like you — and that’s why reaching our $150,000 Winter Relief goal by this Friday is so important. [So I’m personally asking: Will you please give now to help power our disaster response work through disasters like blizzards, floods and storms in the months ahead?]( [Emergency Icon]( Help families impacted by WINTER DISASTERS [Animated progress bar]( Goal: $150,000 DEADLINE: Friday, February 23 [GIVE NOW]( {NAME}, every dollar we receive toward our Winter Relief goal allows us to share more support, more compassion and more hope to communities who are in desperate need of a helping hand.
