The holiday season is here and the American Red Cross is urging people to give something that means something by donating to the Red Cross and helping those in need.
The Red Cross has launched a holiday fundraising campaign, asking everyone to visit redcross.org/gifts to make a donation in the name of the people on their gift list this year. A donation can help provide food and shelter to a victim of disaster, help purchase things like phone cards and supplies for a member of the armed forces, or help supply basic necessities to families in desperate need in countries across the world.
Everyone is invited to browse through the Red Cross Holiday Giving Catalog and view symbolic gifts they can “purchase” for, or in honor of, a loved one.
The American Red Cross is a humanitarian organization led by volunteers. It provides relief to victims of disasters and helps people prevent, prepare for and respond to emergencies.
All Red Cross assistance is free of charge and made possible thanks to the generosity of people in our region who donate their time, money and blood. Financial contributions are always welcomed and needed and can be made by going to nashvilleredcross.org. |
