MISSION

The American Red Cross Rhode Island Chapter is a humanitarian organization, led by volunteers, that provides relief to victims of disasters and helps people prevent, prepare for, and respond to emergencies. It does this through services that are consistent with its congressional charter and the fundamental principles of the American Red Cross and the International Red Cross Movement.

When your neighbors in Rhode Island have nowhere else to turn, the American Red Cross is there – assisting fire victims, teaching lifesaving skills, connecting military personnel with their families and keeping our communities secure in major weather emergencies.
