The American Red Cross (ARC)

The American Red Cross mission states that its organization is a humanitarian organization led by volunteers and guided by its Congressional Charter and the Fundamental Principles of the International Red Cross Movement. It was created long ago to provide release to victims of disaster and help the community prevent, prepare for, and respond to different emergencies. The American Red Cross is a non for profit organization founded in 1881 by Clara Barton to aid victims of fires, floods, and hurricanes. This aid organization, though they are congressionally chartered, does not obtain federal funding.

The main source of financial support is provided from the donations of many humanitarian organizations, people, and corporations. Ninety-one cents from every dollar donated goes to humanitarian services and programs. Branches are located across the U.S. and internationally that provide relief to people in distress from the aftermath of disasters and tragedy. Red Cross is an important and respected role model, which expand more clients and customers each year. Red Cross uses its employees and volunteers to help the community be prepared to act in response to disasters and personal emergencies (ARC, n.d.).

The Red Cross offers training in lifesaving skills such as CPR and first aid, collects, and distributes half the nation's blood supply, and helps victims of more than 67,000 disasters. The cleverness the Red Cross uses helps to make learning about the community's needs, which make them more productive. A broad sense of goodwill, friendliness, and positivity is advanced within the community. Red Cross is careful not to do thing that may cost the community change or burden it in any other way. They really get to more about the community with the help they offer, which makes working with the community's more considerate (ARC, n.d.).
