Red Cross Trivia

The American Red Cross was chartered by Congress to furnish disaster relief services. Contrary to popular belief, however, the Red Cross gets no funding from the U.S. government. All funding comes from private donations. That's why it is so important that all of us support the Red Cross with our donations.
