“I felt very heroic." When Dan saw a tractor-trailer overturn, he knew exactly what to do to help save a life. He had recently taken a First Aid class through his employer, Facebook.

From providing 79K+ overnight shelter stays to driving emergency response vehicles 901K+ miles, we've done a lot this year with your help.

Here are a few ways to support the #RedCross while you shop this holiday season! Thank you to our corporate partners and their customers who #GiveWithMeaning.

“Blood donations mean life for our family. They allow our daughters to grow, learn, play and thrive. Receiving blood keeps me healthy and helps me be the best mother I can be to the girls.” Make a lifesaving gift this holiday season.

Thanks to our Pacific Coast chapter for leading the way today!

#MondayMotivation. Shawn was diagnosed with #cancer in June. Over the last 6 months, he has undergone chemotherapy, two stem cell transplants & radiation. Regular blood & platelet transfusions help him continue to fight. Make your appointment to give: rcblood.org/appt

It's #Fridaythe13th, but no need to be scared. Worried about walking under a ladder? Walk UP one instead to install a #smokealarm. See a black cat? Make a #preparedness plan for your pet. Step on a crack? Get an emergency kit so you're ready before the next #earthquake hits.

They're festive AND a fire hazard. We want everyone to stay safe as they decorate their homes. Decorations like trees 🌲, lights ✨ and candles 🕯️ increase the risk of home fires during the holidays. #endhomefires

1,000 units of blood went uncollected over the last week due to severe weather and holiday travel. Help us restock the shelves for patients in need.

Every day, 7 people die in home fires. You can help change that. The Sound the Alarm campaign is coming to 3 cities in December: #LaPuente, #SantaClarita & #EastHollywood. Join members of these communities + Red Cross volunteers to help #EndHomeFires: SoundTheAlarm.org/LosAngeles

With 192 national societies around the world, we have a lot of volunteers to be thankful for this #InternationalVolunteerDay! #ThanksVolunteers 👏🏽

Being kind can be contagious! These children are helping share the #PowerOfKindness ❤️ #TuesdayMotivation

Lifesavers don’t just walk on two legs. 🐕 Meet the hero hounds of #WW1. #TuesdayMotivation

Today, we're inviting you to give yourself the peace of mind of being able to say "I'm Ready" for disasters large and small. Once you're #RedCrossReady, here are some other ways to help your community on #GivingTuesday:

#GivingTuesday is almost over, but the hope you give to those in need can last a lifetime. Give before midnight PT and your gift will be matched by a generous donor from Wisconsin (up to $150K). #GiveWithMeaning
