Get Prepared

By taking some time now to make an emergency preparedness kit and family communication plan, you will make it much easier on yourself and your loved ones if a disaster or emergency were to happen, whether it is a tornado, fire or power outage. Not only will you be better able to respond, but you may experience less physical, financial and emotional strain caused by the emergency.

We are here to help make you Red Cross Ready with three actions:

  1. Get a kit.
  2. Make a plan.
  3. Be informed.

Find out more. Request a presentation at your church, school or event today!


We also have programs geared at preparing your senior group, Scouts and School Health volunteers.

Each year hundreds of people from southeastern Wisconsin serve as Red Cross volunteers. With their help, time and commitment, the Red Cross is able to help people in emergencies, teach first aid and CPR courses, deliver emergency messages to members of the military, organize programs for the elderly and youth and much more. Red Cross volunteers work directly with people or provide behind-the-scenes support. To find out more about how we make an impact in your community, sign up for our enewsletter CrossRoads.
