American Red Cross Homeland Security Advisory System Recommendations

The Capital Area Regional Chapter of the American Red Cross For over one hundred years the American Red Cross has been providing assistance to individuals affected by a disaster. We are dedicated to helping people across the United States and its territories prevent, prepare for, and respond to emergencies. Created as a humanitarian organization the American Red Cross strives to function within the seven Fundamental Principles of the International Red Cross; Humanity, Impartiality, Neutrality, Independence, Voluntary Service, Unity, Universality. These principles are not the only guidelines for the American Red Cross. On January 5, 1905 the American Red Cross received its Congressional Charter under which we still operate today. The programs of the American Red Cross are made possible by the voluntary services and financial support of the American people. We would like to say thank you to all of you who donate your time and money to the Red Cross. Your help makes your community and the world a better place. Visit the American Red Cross Museum for more information about the history of the American Red Cross.
Our MissionThe American Red Cross, a humanitarian organization led by volunteers and guided by its Congressional Charter and the Fundamental Principles of the International Red Cross Movement, will provide relief to victims of disasters and helps people prevent, prepare for, and respond to emergencies.
