Hurricane Season is Here -
Help us Be Ready to Respond!
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is predicting 4-to-6 major hurricanes this year. Major hurricanes are those Category 3, 4, and 5 storms that do the most damage with winds of over 100 miles per hour. The American Red Cross is launching a new national fundraising drive in anticipation of this extremely active hurricane season.
The American Red Cross has already spent nearly $30 million this hurricane season training and preparing volunteers and pre-positioning equipment and materials near areas that could be hit by hurricanes. The Red Cross is gearing up to provide 1 million meals a day for hurricane victims, shelter 350,000 people a day, and deploy more than 50,000 volunteers. We’re asking the public for their support in advance rather than waiting for disaster to strike.
