Donate In-Kind
Products
Thank Your for
Your Interest in
Donating Materials
to the American Red
Cross!
The Red Cross is
unable to accept
small, individual
donations or
collections of items
such as clothing,
food or cleaning
supplies. The cost
to sort, package and
distribute these
types of donations
to disaster victims
is almost always
greater than the
cost of purchasing
the items locally,
and it is
logistically
impossible to
distribute a wide
variety of
individual items in
a meaningful way.
While the Red Cross
can not accept the
donation of an
individual item, you
can support the Red
Cross through the or
support your
community by
donating these items
to an organization
that is equipped to
put them to the best
possible local use.
Offers of sizeable,
bulk donations are
reviewed to
determine if they
meet a current need
for disaster victims
that can be
addressed by the Red
Cross. Bulk
donations are
typically new,
shrink-wrapped and
palletized items,
and they are
transported by the
donor.
If you would like to
discuss this type of
donation, please
call (256) 536-0084
