Help People Affected by Hurricane Ida

Host Organization: American Red Cross Washington D.C., USA redcross.org/

About

Powerful Hurricane Ida made landfall Sunday on the southeastern Louisiana coast, a Category 4 storm with winds of 150 mph, life-threatening storm surge, potentially catastrophic wind damage and flooding rainfall.

Alongside our partners, the Red Cross has mobilized hundreds of trained disaster workers and relief supplies to shelter and support thousands of people in evacuation shelters from Texas to Florida.

About the Host

Since its founding in 1881 by visionary leader Clara Barton, the American Red Cross has been the nation's premier emergency response organization. We bring shelter, food and comfort to those affected by disasters, large and small. We collect lifesaving donated blood and supply it to patients in need. We provide support to our men and women in military bases around the world, and to the families they leave behind. We train communities in CPR, first aid and other skills that save lives. And we assist our neighbors abroad with critical disaster response, preparedness and disease prevention efforts. We are able to do all this by mobilizing the power of volunteers and the generosity of donors.
