The American Red Cross is where people mobilize to help their neighbors—across the street, across the country and across the world—in emergencies. The American Red Cross of the Delmarva Peninsula serves the state of Delaware and Caroline, Cecil, Dorchester, Kent, Queen Anne's and Talbot counties in Maryland. Last year, volunteers and paid staff responded to 184 disasters of varying sizes throughout our communities, providing disaster relief - free of charge – to nearly 870 people. Approximately 20,500 people were trained in lifesaving skills such as CPR and First Aid. Nearly 800 emergency communications sent through the Red Cross kept members of the military in touch with their families. More than 500 seniors living independently were given peace of mind through our Lifeline personal emergency response program. More than 8,000 people on the Delmarva Peninsula attended Community Disaster Education presentations, teaching them the 3 steps for emergency preparedness. Since the Red Cross is not a government agency, it relies on valuable donations of talent, time and money to do its humanitarian work.
