HOW TO HELP
Financial donations are the quickest and best way to support people impacted by disasters. Your financial donation to the Red Cross helps provide shelter, meals, relief supplies, comfort, financial assistance and other support to those in need after disasters.
To donate, visit rdcrss.org/3TMljHa or redcross.org/donar.
To volunteer visit redcross.org/volunteer and redcross.org/voluntarios.
GIVE BLOOD
The Red Cross is working to restock critically needed blood products after the cancellation of blood drives across the Southeast, causing more than 2,500 blood donations to go uncollected.
In the aftermath of Helene, patients are fighting their own battle. Those outside the affected areas are encouraged to schedule a blood donation appointment now by visiting RedCrossBlood.org or using the Blood Donor App to help restock the shelves.
