American Red Cross

A legacy of compassion links the earliest Red Cross visionaries – Henry Dunant, father of the International Red Cross movement, and Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross – with millions of Red Cross supporters who carry on the noble work of the nation’s largest volunteer humanitarian service organization.

This compassion enables Red Cross volunteers to bring urgently needed services to millions of people.  The Red Cross has been part of your community for generations – because each generation has looked to the future by supporting the Red Cross.  You can show your personal compassion – and set an example for others – by remembering the Silicon Valley Chapter in your will, trust, or other planned gift.  No gift has more lasting impact than a bequest or other gift from your estate.

The Legacy Society recognizes your remembrance of the American Red Cross in your estate plan.  All types of planned gifts will be acknowledged toward membership in the society.

Your participation in the Legacy Society makes you an active partner in the work of the Silicon Valley Chapter.  As a society member, you will learn exactly how your contribution helps those who need Red Cross services.  Also, we would like to present you with a special token of our appreciation that will formally recognize you as a valued supporter of the Red Cross and let you demonstrate that support to the community.

For more information on remembering the American Red Cross in your estate plan and becoming a member of the Legacy Society, contact Kathleen Wright at 1-888-868-1992 or email.
