Red Cross Reunification teams are working as quickly as they can to make these connections. Please fill out the form for the state where the person lives that you are looking for, and provide as much detail as you can to assist us in potentially locating your missing loved one: https://rdcrss.org/3TQEqzT

The Red Cross has declared an urgent need for blood and platelet donations in the wake of Hurricane Helene. In addition to the unimaginable devastation caused by the storm, the hurricane forced more than 1,000 scheduled blood donations to go uncollected through the Carolinas and Georgia. That number continues to grow. Hospitals are overwhelmed, supplies are depleted, and blood and platelets are desperately needed. Those in areas of the state who can safely give blood are asked to roll up their sleeves and donate today to ensure that those who need access to lifesaving care can receive it. Pledge to give blood via this link.
