HOW TO MAKE A DONATION

Summer has officially arrived, but the Dangers Many Faced this Winter Continue!

Summer in Maine doesn't always mean the end of the heating season and we at the Mid Coast Chapter remain especially concerned for our friends and neighbors. As local families struggle to make ends meet in a downturn economy, they may opt to use heating sources such as woodstoves, space heaters and fireplaces to keep their homes warm. Throughout the Northeast, the improper installation and use of these devises is expected to cause a dramatic increase in the number of home fires and even loss of life.

Our disaster volunteers and staff have witnessed the devastation that fires have caused in the lives of many local families. In the past year they have responded to 32 single and multi-family home fires, helping 88 individuals in the Mid Coast area recover from these devastating events. Most of the time these families lost everything.

We cannot emphasize enough the importance of safety when using various heating devices. Please take a few moments to keep yourself and your family safe by reviewing and following the Home Heating Safety Tips provided on this site.

Thanks to concerned people like you, the Mid Coast Chapter is at work in your community - 365 days a year. Please consider making a donation to the Mid Coast Chapter’s local disaster relief fund today!

OUR MISSION - The American Red Cross, a humanitarian organization led by volunteers, guided by its Congressional Charter and the Fundamental Principles of the International Red Cross Movement, will provide relief to victims of disasters and help people prevent, prepare for and respond to emergencies.
