The Red Cross is not a government agency; all Red Cross disaster assistance is given free of charge, and is made possible by the generous contribution of people's time, money, and skills. Your gift today will provide hope and relief tomorrow.

Other Ways to Support the Red Cross

Purchase "Be Red Cross Ready" Products

Red Cross Products focus on everyday safety, wellness and preparedness. Everyday emergencies come in many forms – colds and flu, winter road conditions, even a new baby with a fever. The Red Cross wants families to have the confidence and peace of mind that goes along with knowing they are prepared for all of life’s everyday emergencies. Baby wellness items, emergency radios, books on family caregiving, auto safety products, hand sanitizer, disposable gloves and preparedness kits are included in the initial line of “Be Red Cross Ready” products available online and in retail outlets across the country.

A percentage of sale from each of these products will support the American Red Cross. Products are available at Babies R’ Us, Best Buy, Radio Shack, Sams Club, Target, Wal-Mart, RedCrossStore.org and many other online and brick-and-morter retailers. For more information please contact 202-303-8380 or email licensing@usa.redcross.org.

Gifts of Goods / In-Kind Donations

The Red Cross is unable to accept small, individual donations or collections of items such as clothing, food or cleaning supplies. The cost to sort, package and distribute these types of donations to disaster victims is almost always greater than the cost of purchasing the items locally, and it is logistically impossible to distribute a wide variety of individual items in a meaningful way. While the Red Cross can not accept the donation of an individual item, you can support the Red Cross through the online sale of personal items or support your community by donating these items to an organization that is equipped to put them to the best possible local use.

Offers of sizeable, bulk donations are reviewed to determine if they meet a current need for disaster victims that can be addressed by the Red Cross. Bulk donations are typically new, shrink-wrapped and palletized items, and they are transported by the donor.

This fact sheet provides additional information regarding the ability of the Red Cross to accept in-kind donations and can help you make an informed decision about one of the ways you can support disaster relief activities.
