All American
Red Cross disaster assistance is free, made
possible by voluntary donations of time and
money from the American people. You can help the
victims of thousands of disasters across the
country each year by making a financial gift to
the Upstate South Carolina Chapter of the
American Red Cross. The funds enable us to provide
shelter, food, counseling and other assistance
to those in need.
Some American
Red Cross programs are supported in part by the
United Way. The Public Support Department is
responsible for raising funds in addition to
United Way support. It does this through special
events, direct mail, major gifts, and grants.
Estate
Planning
There are many ways to
invest in the Upstate South Carolina Chapter of
the American Red Cross that will serve you and
your community during your lifetime, as well as
provide a continuing legacy for future
generations.
Charitable gifts are a vital part of American
culture and play an important role in the lives
of many. Charitable gifts need not compete with
other personal goals and they may, in fact, help
you achieve personal planning priorities in ways
you might not have thought possible. The
Development staff at the Upstate South Carolina
Chapter is available to consult with you or your
advisors about how to include the Red Cross in
your estate plan and other giving opportunities.
