Each year, the luckywin immediately responds to nearlyÌý60,000ÌýdisastersÌýaround the country — from home fires to tornadoes and severe winter weather, hurricanes and floods to transportation accidents and explosions. The Red Cross not only provides food, clothing, and shelter but also offers comfort and care to help those affected by disaster during their time of greatest need.
Members of our Annual Disaster Giving Program (ADGP) and Disaster Responder Program pre-invest in disaster relief, ensuring the Red Cross can pre-position supplies, secure shelters, maintain vehicles and train volunteers nationwide, so we’re always ready to respond, day and night. This support also means we can remain on-on hand to assist people as they recover and help become better prepared for the next disaster.
Donors that commit $250,000 or more annually to Red Cross Disaster Relief are recognized as ADGP or Disaster Responder Program members and, based on their giving level, receive significant access to nationwide Red Cross benefits, information, and decision-makers.
To learn how your organization can get involved in the ADGP or Disaster Responder Program, please contact Deborah Amon at deborah.amon@redcross.org.

None of this work would be possible without the generous support of our donors and community partners.
