Washington, DC - Our commitment never wavers. On this Memorial Day weekend, we highlight our Service to the Armed Forces and how the Red Cross helps members of the military, veterans and their families prepare for, cope with, and respond to the challenges of military service.

About the American Red Cross: The American Red Cross shelters, feeds and provides emotional support to victims of disasters; supplies about 40 percent of the nation's blood; teaches skills that save lives; provides international humanitarian aid; and supports military members and their families. The Red Cross is a not-for-profit organization that depends on volunteers and the generosity of the American public to perform its mission.
