Nearly every second of every day, the American Red Cross is needed—to provide a warm blanket to home fire victims, to ensure life-saving blood is available to a mother giving birth, and to arm communities and individuals with preparedness training. The generosity of Ready 365 members during the 2020 fiscal year made a lifesaving difference for people in our community and beyond.
