Donate In-Kind
Products
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. Because of these cost
and logistical concerns, we recommend that you 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,
