2009 Annual Report
Like No Other Organization
The American Red Cross is the nation’s largest, independent, nonprofit humanitarian organization helping people prevent, prepare for and respond to all types of emergencies. No other entity provides our depth of services to communities in the United States and around the world.
Every single day, we harness the very best of humanity to carry out our mission in five complementary service-delivery areas—Disaster Services, Health and Safety Services, Biomedical Services, Service to the Armed Forces and International Services. We make a difference in ways that can be felt in your neighborhood and around the world.
Central Minnesota Chapter delivers services to 17 counties in Central Minnesota:

International families assisted |

Disaster families assisted |
216 |
|
Military families assisted |
463 |
|
Health & Safety Training Individuals |
47,158 |
|
Blood Units Collected |
30,000 |
The Red Cross is not a government agency; we rely on private donations of time, talent, money and blood to do our work. We rely on the generosity and willingness of people and businesses to help others in need. We are proud of the fact that 91 cents of every dollar the Red Cross spends goes to humanitarian services and programs.
