DONATION INFORMATION

The Red Cross is a symbol of hope throughout the world. As part of this humanitarian organization, the American Red Cross Illinois Capital Area Chapter provides relief to victims of local disasters, as well as community, national and international disasters.

Your contributions help the Chapter to:

• Provide food, clothing, shelter, and counseling for victims of more than 100 local disaster incidents each year. These include house fires, tornados, floods, ice storms, and more.
  
  
• Help The Illinois Capital Area Chapter provide the community with opportunities to learn First Aid, CPR/AED, and other lifesaving skills that will keep them and others safe in times of emergencies. This includes educating the community in disaster preparedness.
  
  
• Provide emergency communications for military families trying to reach their loved ones overseas. This also includes offering assistance to those trying to locate family members at the time of international disasters.
  
  
• Operate the a Meals on Wheels program, which provides low-cost/no-cost healthy and diet-specific meals to seniors and others who depend on the service for health-related reasons in Sangamon County.

We feel good knowing that we will make a difference in the lives of our clients; however, it is the community who makes what the Red Cross does possible. By supporting the Illinois Capital Area Chapter, people can give those in need the greatest gift of all…hope.

Thank you in advance for your generosity and kindness!
