Cash is the most effective way for the Red Cross to provide rapid relief, and enables the most flexible use of resources. Unlike in-kind donations, cash contributions do not involve additional cleaning and transportation costs. One hundred percent of funds contributed will be forwarded to the Washington area Red Cross. All Red Cross assistance is free, made possible by voluntary gifts of time and money from the American people. Contributions to the Disaster Relief Fund may also be sent to the Greater Salt Lake Area Chapter of the American Red Cross, P.O. Box 3836, Salt Lake City, UT 84110.
