AmeriCorps
The mission of the National Preparedness & Response Corps (NPRC) is to provide vital emergency assistance to communities affected by disasters and increase preparedness by way of community outreach and education through Red Cross service activities.
Be Red Cross Ready
The American Red Cross of Southeastern Pennsylvania responds to more than 900 emergencies a year. Are you ready for a disaster? Are you Red Cross ready? The American Red Cross and its partners in preparedness have the information you need to keep you and your family safe.
Disaster Relief
Our chapter provides disaster relief assistance to individuals and families affected by natural and manmade disasters in Philadelphia, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery, and Upper Bucks Counties. American Red Cross disaster relief focuses on meeting people's immediate emergency disaster-caused needs. The core of Red Cross disaster relief is the assistance given to individuals and families affected by disaster to enable them to resume their normal independent lives.

Both active duty and community-based military can count on the our chapter to provide emergency communications, emergency financial assistance, counseling, veterans assistance, and aid in the field where Red Cross workers are deployed to serve with America's military.
