Last year, the American Red Cross of Central New Jersey responded to 99 incidents and assisted 667 families, including 200 children, to help them cope with the devastation of fire and other disasters.

The familiar arm band symbol and Red Cross name tag signify someone you can trust, someone you can turn to. When disaster strikes, the Red Cross is there with food, clothing, shelter and safety to enable victims to rebuild their lives.

In addition to emergency response and contact with other helping agencies, we also provide door-to-door distribution of safety information - particularly in high risk neighborhoods - to help people prevent fires and safeguard their lives and property.

Last year, in another helping role, we enabled 756 families to contact loved ones in the Armed Forces, or trace those lost overseas. In an emergency, we can have a service man or woman at a family member's bedside in a matter of hours.
