WHAT WE AIM TO SOLVE

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

Since our founding by Clara Barton on May 21, 1881, the American Red Cross has
been dedicated to serving people in need. We received our first congressional
charter in 1900 and... to this day we are tasked by the federal government with
providing services to members of the American armed forces and their families as
well as providing disaster relief in the United States and around the world. Red
Cross volunteers and staff work to deliver vital services – from providing
relief and support to those in crisis, to helping you be prepared to respond in
emergencies. Read more

LIFESAVING BLOOD

Every two seconds someone in the U.S. needs blood. It is essential for
surgeries, cancer treatment, chronic illnesses, and traumatic injuries. Whether
a patient receives whole blood, red cells, platelets or plasma, this lifesaving
care starts with one person making a generous donation. To learn about American
Red Cross lifesaving blood work, please visit www.RedCrossBlood.org

respond to are home fires. To learn about American Red Cross Disaster Relief,

CHARTING IMPACT

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters -
results.

WHAT IS THE ORGANIZATION AIMING TO ACCOMPLISH?

The American Red Cross exists to provide compassionate care to those in need.
Our network of generous donors, volunteers and employees share a mission of
preventing and relieving suffering, here at home and around the world, through
five key service areas:

Disaster Relief
The Red Cross responds to an average of more than 60,000 disasters in the United
States every year, ranging from home fires that affect single families to
hurricanes and earthquakes that impact millions. In these events, the Red Cross
provides shelter, food, health and mental health services and other support to
help families and entire communities get back on their feet. Although the Red
Cross is not a government agency, it is an essential part of the response when
disaster strikes. But as no one organization can manage every aspect of disaster
response, the Red Cross works in partnership with other agencies and
organizations that provide services to disaster victims.

To learn more about the latest work of the American Red Cross, visit the Current
News section of RedCross.org
(http://www.redcross.org/about-us/news-and-events/latest-news).

Supporting America's Military Families
The Red Cross helps service members, veterans and their families prepare for,
cope with, and respond to the challenges of military service. Each year, the Red
Cross provides nearly 550,000 services to service members, veterans and their
families.

Lifesaving Blood
Each year, the Red Cross collects more than 4.5 million units of blood and
nearly 1 million platelet donations from nearly 2.5 million volunteer donors.
These donations are then processed into more than 6.4 million blood products for
transfusions to meet the needs of patients at about 2,500 hospitals and other
facilities across the country.

Training Services
Every community is safer thanks to, on average, nearly 2.5 million people who
train each year in Red Cross first aid, CPR and AED classes. And, more than 4.6
million people a year receive Red Cross training in first aid, water safety and
other skills that help save lives.

International Services
The American Red Cross is part of the world's largest humanitarian network.
Working together, we help our Red Cross/Red Crescent partners respond to
international disasters, build safer communities, and teach the rules of war. On
average, nearly 210 million people outside the U.S. benefit each year from
American Red Cross disease prevention activities and disaster services.

WHAT ARE THE ORGANIZATION'S KEY STRATEGIES FOR MAKING THIS HAPPEN?

Each day, thousands of people – people just like you – provide compassionate
care to those in need. Our network of generous donors, volunteers and employees
share a mission of preventing and relieving suffering, here at home and around
the world.

We roll up our sleeves and donate time, money and blood. We learn or teach
life-saving skills so our communities can be better prepared when the need
arises. We do this every day because the Red Cross is needed - every day.

Since our founding in 1881, Red Cross humanitarian support hasn’t wavered, but
the way in which assistance is delivered continues to evolve.

Research shows the climate is changing, and the American Red Cross is witnessing
first-hand the adverse impacts of more extreme weather events. Together with our
partners, the Red Cross is changing how we plan for severe weather events, how
we allocate and develop response material and human resources, and how we
identify and prioritize services. This includes investments in technology that
enable the Red Cross to better prepare in advance, visualize damage and
destruction in real time, and develop targeted response plans to help people and
communities faster. Addressing the threat of climate change will require
collective efforts to build resiliency in communities and help alleviate human
suffering. The Red Cross, through our strong network of volunteers, donors and
partners, will do our part to ensure we can meet this challenge and continue to
provide help and hope to those in need.

Information saves lives. It empowers people to make preparedness plans, donate
blood and even find the help
they need in a crisis. That’s why the American Red Cross engages our more than 7
million social media followers in
conversation relevant to their daily lives. During emergencies, the Red Cross
monitors social media conversation and offers practical advice to people looking
for help—such as shelter locations and how to
stay safe during wildfires. Thanks to innovative geospacial technology and
real-time monitoring tools, we also identify gaps and challenges on the ground
and pass them along to operational teams who use the information to take quick
and targeted action to address needs. As more and more people reach out through
social media for support, the Red Cross brings our mission to individuals and
communities in creative and lifesaving ways online.

In Fiscal Year 2020, the Red Cross introduced two new chatbots to guide blood
donors, employees and volunteers on their search for information. Chatbots use
artificial intelligence to simulate a “conversation” with a user in an efficient
and friendly manner while continuously learning and improving as time goes by.
These Red Cross chatbots are named Clara and Mabel to honor Clara Barton and
Mabel Thorp Boardman, two of the organization’s earliest leaders.

WHAT ARE THE ORGANIZATION'S CAPABILITIES FOR DOING THIS?

The American Red Cross has numerous resources we rely on to deliver on our
mission, including nearly 300,000 volunteers and more than 17,000 employees;
through a network of about 230 local chapters across the U.S.; and over 35
stations around the world that support U.S. service members and their families.
The Red Cross depends on the generosity of the American public to fulfill our
mission. Central to meeting our goal and being able to deliver on our mission
are those who support us with donations of their time, blood and money. This
includes many financial supporters, as well as the nearly 2.5 million people who
donate blood and platelets to the Red Cross each year.

Each year, the Red Cross responds to an average of more than 60,000 disasters,
the vast majority of which are home fires. So we have set a goal to reduce
fire-related deaths and injuries in the US by 25% through our Home Fire Campaign
and our signature event, Sound the Alarm. So far we have installed over 2.2
million smoke alarms to help make over 940,000 households safer. Through the Red
Cross chapter network, we participate in federal, state and local government
agency disaster planning exercises and response efforts. We work closely with
FEMA as co-leaders of the mass care portion of Emergency Support Function #6 of
the National Response Framework. We also partner with community organizations
and corporate supporters to provide emergency shelter, food and health and
mental health services as well as resources and referrals to aid in recovery.

In addition, in fiscal year 2021, our chapters provided lifesaving training and
information to nearly 2.5 million people in Red Cross first aid, CPR and AED
classes, and more than 400 million weather alerts were issued to Red Cross
mobile app users across the country. The Red Cross is making its training
services offerings even more accessible to the public and more relevant, with
courses such as First Aid for Opioid Overdoses.

We are working to strengthen the Red Cross brand. We are implementing nationwide
marketing and brand standards to ensure the Red Cross has a consistent voice,
sound and look across the country, which will increase the public's
understanding of what we do. In addition, we are using a variety of platforms
(e.g., www.redcross.org, our blog, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, as well as
more traditional media such as newspapers, radio and TV) to communicate with the
public, illustrate our services and garner support in the form of additional
volunteers, blood donors and financial donations.

Our reputation as one of the oldest, and most trusted, nonprofit organizations
in the country also helps us as we work to become a stronger Red Cross. The
progress that we make is also due in great part to the strength of our
partnerships—from those we collaborate with and the thousands of volunteers who
deliver our services, to those whose financial investment puts our mission into
action.

WHAT HAVE THEY ACCOMPLISHED SO FAR AND WHAT'S NEXT?

Despite the significant challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, this past
year dedicated Red Crossers responded to over 60,000 disasters, delivered
lifesaving blood products to hospital patients in need, trained millions of
Americans in critical health and safety skills, supported military families and
our veterans with emergency services, and assisted the international community
with ongoing disease prevention and disaster response efforts.

Here at home, the Red Cross responded to numerous and significant disaster
events in FY 2021, including: Hurricanes Laura, Sally, Delta & Zeta; derecho
storm in the Midwest; devastating wildfires in western states like California
and Oregon; winter storms in Texas; severe tornadoes and floods across parts of
the country; and more. We took extraordinary steps to ensure the continuation of
our mission during the pandemic while safeguarding the health and wellbeing of
our volunteers, employees and the people we serve. As always, we remain deeply
committed to providing our lifesaving services with equity, compassion and
respect for all people.

In addition to our response work, in FY 2021 the Red Cross worked to ensure
individuals are prepared for everyday emergencies they may encounter by teaching
more than 4.6 million people lifesaving skills, such as First Aid and water
safety. At the onset of the pandemic, we quickly established new online courses
to provide individuals and businesses with the information needed to keep
themselves, their loved ones and their employees safe in the COVID-19
environment.

FY 2021 also saw the Red Cross continue our efforts to provide vital blood
products to hospital patients in need. Our Service to the Armed Forces mission
remained a critical focus as well—with Red Cross workers distributing more than
780,000 care and comfort items at military hospitals and VA medical facilities.
And, working with our global partners, we moved forward in our efforts to
protect at-risk communities from measles and rubella while also helping to
respond to the COVID-19 crisis around the globe. None of this lifesaving work
would be possible without the commitment and generosity of compassionate
supporters, like you.

Since our founding in 1881, Red Cross humanitarian support hasn’t wavered, but
the way in which assistance is delivered continues to evolve. Though we're
focusing now on some of these items, we will continue to focus more in coming
years, too:
- Adapting to the Global Threats of Climate Change
- Identifying Needs through Social Media
- Utilizing Artificial Intelligence to Provide Timely Information; and
- Providing Blood Donors Health Insights During COVID-19

EQUITY STRATEGIES

Last updated: 04/05/2021

GuideStar partnered with Equity in the Center - an organization that works to
shift mindsets, practices, and systems to increase racial equity - to create
this section. Learn more

Data
 * We review compensation data across the organization (and by staff levels) to
   identify disparities by race.
 * We disaggregate data to adjust programming goals to keep pace with changing
   needs of the communities we support.
 * We have long-term strategic plans and measurable goals for creating a culture
   such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the
   organization.

Policies and processes
 * We use a vetting process to identify vendors and partners that share our
   commitment to race equity.
 * We seek individuals from various race backgrounds for board and executive
   director/CEO positions within our organization.
 * We have community representation at the board level, either on the board
   itself or through a community advisory board.
 * We help senior leadership understand how to be inclusive leaders with
   learning approaches that emphasize reflection, iteration, and adaptability.
 * We measure and then disaggregate job satisfaction and retention data by race,
   function, level, and/or team.
 * We engage everyone, from the board to staff levels of the organization, in
   race equity work and ensure that individuals understand their roles in
   creating culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they
   fare within the organization.
