The Red Cross honors donor intent. Donations to disaster relief allow the Red Cross to spend the money where and how it is most needed.
In-Kind Donations
Each disaster is unique, as are the needs of those affected. Financial donations are the quickest and best way to get help to the people who need it most. We know our communities are generous and want to do everything they can to help after a disaster. Unfortunately, collecting and sending food, clothing and other household items often does more harm than good. Instead, the best way to support disaster victims is with a financial donation.
