Mission Statement

The American Red Cross, a humanitarian organization led by volunteers and guided by its Congressional Charter and the Fundamental Principles of the International Red Cross Movement, will provide relief

to victims of disaster and help people prevent, prepare for, and respond to emergencies.

Principles of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Network

Humanity • Impartiality • Neutrality • Independence • Voluntary service • Unity • Universality

A Message from the Mile High Region Chairman and CEO

The American Red Cross helped hundreds of thousands of people whose lives were forever

like the Japan earthquake and tsunami.

Locally, our dedicated corps of community-based volunteers responded to 333 disasters in the Mile High Region and helped 617 families affected by those disasters – from sheltering and

by individual disasters. Our local chapters also contributed to the Red Cross response across the

busiest disaster seasons on record. Local volunteers logged more than 100 deployments to lend a hand in dozens of states, including Alabama, Missouri and North Dakota.

Disasters draw our attention and compassion, but every day Red Cross workers are active in the community helping families, businesses and organizations prepare for and prevent disasters and emergencies.

Tens of thousands of Colorado residents took Red Cross training in skills like CPR, First Aid andlifeguarding, empowering everyday people to identify and respond to emergencies – and potentially save lives.

Our Save A Life Denver program is working to improve survival rates for sudden cardiac arrest, one

Recognizing that resilient communities are better able to recover from disasters, the Red Cross Preparedness Department has continued to reach out to local businesses and community networks to provide training and guidance in preparedness and resiliency. These efforts aim to ensure that the cornerstones of a strong community can withstand disasters and contribute to their community’s recovery.

We provide these services thanks to the compassionate dedication of our volunteers and the generous support of our donors and partners. Whether you donate, volunteer, take Red Cross CPR trainings or provide them for your employees, thank you. You make the Red Cross what it is today.

The American Red Cross provides vital services to Colorado communities 365 days a

to individuals and businesses.

We’re able to provide these services thanks to a corps of more than 2,300 dedicated Mile High Region volunteers and the generosity of our donors. The American Red Cross puts these donations to good use—we are proud to tell donors that nationally we invest an average of 91 cents of every dollar in humanitarian services and programs, well above the industry standard.

How do we do it? By practicing what we preach: preparedness. We train our volunteers. We plan ahead for the types of disasters that strike in our community. And we train individuals, businesses and community groups so that they too can be prepared.

The American Red Cross Mile High Region comprises four chapters that serve three-quarters of the state of Colorado: the Mile High, Northern Colorado, Western Colorado

2010 – June 30, 2011), you’ll learn about how we help our neighbors—down the street, across the country and around the world.

We’re ready to respond to disasters 7 days a week, 365 days a year in our community, providing shelter, food, clothing and emotional support at no cost to those in need. The four chapters that comprise the Mile High Region are part of a nationwide network of Red Cross chapters that work together to respond to large-scale relief efforts.

as devastating for those who have suddenly lost their homes, possessions and sense of security.

The American Red Cross also works to strengthen the capacity of local communities to prepare for and prevent disasters and emergencies. Recognizing that not all disasters can be prevented, the Red Cross Mile High Region is engaged in a major effort to build community resilience, so that Colorado communities are better equipped to bounce back from disasters when they do happen.

Local Red Cross workers reached out at every level of the community last year, from training and education for individuals to partnerships and programs for neighborhoods, community groups, schools and businesses.

Whole Community PreparednessIn order to be successful, disaster prevention and resilience requires the participation of the whole community. Starting with the smallest unit – the individual – the Red Cross

to identify and respond to the most common emergencies, such as cardiac arrest and choking.

Last year, 82,634 individuals learned critical skills through Red Cross courses:

• 26,313 people enrolled in water safety/aquatics • 5,101 people enrolled in other courses such as Caregiving.

Our Save A Life Denver program aims to improve cardiac arrest survival rates by

to use the devices and perform CPR. The goal of the program is to place at least 1,000 AEDs and train 10,000 individuals by the end of 2012.

He added that he is thankful for and inspired by the compassion and generosity of the community – including the Red Cross workers who helped his family immediately after the disaster struck.

“I couldn’t believe how fast the Red Cross was there,” Gordon recalled. The Red Cross provided his family with food, clothing and bedding and helped get his family on the road to recovery.

Our work is made possible by our dedicated, compassionate, community-based volunteers.

In the aftermath of a disaster, if businesses and organizations do not quickly recover, then the community itself cannot quickly recover. The Red Cross Ready Rating program helps businesses, schools and organizations improve their level of preparedness for emergen-cies of every scale, from responding to an on-site medical emergency to recovering from a devastating disaster. Ready Rating is a free membership program that includes a 123-point assessment tool to gauge current preparedness levels, followed by guided advice on what steps to take to increase organizational resilience in the face of disasters and emergencies.

Last year, the Mile High Region enrolled 78 local businesses, schools and organizations in Ready Rating. Our goal is to enroll 250 members by the end of 2014.

In 2011, the Mile High Region launched a new initiative designed to improve community

local community. The Community Resilience Pilot reaches out to targeted neighborhoods to increase their capacity to work collaboratively under non-emergency circumstances, so that when a disaster occurs, the community not only is better prepared, but also has criti-cal partnerships and systems in place to effectively respond and recover well.

Red Cross workers established the foundation for pilot projects in Aurora, Golden, Denver, Boulder and Littleton in FY2011. Our workers aim to use these community models to achieve successes that will help us eventually expand this community engagement strat-egy throughout the region we serve.

Serving the Military, Their Families and VeteransRed Cross workers in Colorado give support to active-duty military members, National Guard and Reserve members, veterans and their families. We provide pre-deployment

Deployed service members also count on us to deliver emergency messages, such as

communications, which help commanders decide when to grant leave. We also provide support for the sick and wounded at military and veterans hospitals and assistance in

During FY2011, the Red Cross Mile High Region:• Briefed 10,026 families through the “Get to Know Us Before You Need Us” program• Provided 1,970 services to military members, veterans and families, including emergency communications

Our Service to the Armed Forces volunteers assist during community events for service membersand step up to answer the call for help when unexpected needs arise.

We are excited to expand our local Service to the Armed Forces program in the Mile High Region in fiscal year 2012.

Local Efforts, Global ReachAs part of a worldwide humanitarian network, the Red Cross Mile High Region works to deliver international humanitarian aid in the wake of disasters; prevent disease and teach

about International Humanitarian Law. Here in Colorado, we —• Enrolled 724 people in International and Humanitarian Law • Provided 70 international tracing services

Our volunteers worked to help ease the worry and uncertainty of local families who have lost touch with or couldn’t contact loved ones abroad - whether because of long-term separation due to war and unrest or short-term challenges posed by disasters.

The Red Cross chapters of the Mile High Region also helped connect local donors with Red Cross efforts around the globe. When disasters like the Japan earthquake and tsunami struck, Colorado residents gave generously to support international Red Cross relief.

Meeting a Unique Community NeedThe Red Cross Mile High Chapter operates a unique program to meet a growing need in several of the counties we serve. Through partnerships with the Seniors’ Resource Center and VIA Mobility Services, the Red Cross Transportation Program provides free transportation for elderly and disabled Adams, Boulder and Jefferson county residents from their doorstepsto vital appointments such as chemotherapy and doctors’ check-ups.

Last year, our corps of volunteer drivers provided nearly 15,000 rides in each direction and logged nearly 300,000 miles.

This program provides an essential link in the community services that enable these residents to remain in their homes and maintain their independence, health and well being.

Easing the Transition

When military families left Japan to return to the U.S. in the wake of the devastating earthquake and tsunami that struck in March 2011, the Red Cross was there to help provide comfort and care along the journey.

Alongside workers from the Salvation Army and USO, Red Cross volunteers provided a warm welcome, snacks and drinks, toiletries, and comfort for military families passing through Denver International Airport on their way to other cities.

In addition to physical comfort, Red Cross workers also cared for pets that families brought with them from Japan, entertained children while the families waited for connecting transportation, and helped them with contacting family members.

Reconnecting Continents

It was early 2011, and Alamosa resident Evelyn Espinola’s worry about her sister, Patsy, had reached a fever pitch after

in Queensland, Australia, where Patsy lived. Evelyn hadn’t heard from Patsy since Christmas, and repeated attempts to reach her via phone and e-mail proved fruitless.

in the San Luis Valley. The local Red Cross worker there helped Evelyn contact the Red Cross in Australia, where staffers sent someone to Patsy’s house to check on her.

“The next thing I know, I get a call from Patsy,

said. Only two days after Evelyn’s initial call to the Red Cross, Evelyn heard what she was hoping for: Patsy was safe.

Across the Country

Through a network of nearly 600 chapters, 36 blood services regions and a presence on military installations across the country, the American Red Cross helps people when they need it most: when disaster strikes; when a hospital patient is in need of lifesaving blood; when a military family needs emergency assistance; and when people want to learn the skills needed to protect themselves and their family.

Helping Families After Disaster The American Red Cross responds to nearly 70,000 disasters every year across the

Red Cross is always on call to provide immediate care and comfort to those in need.

Winter 2011 brought severe winter storms to a large portion of the U.S., knocking out power for thousands of people and closing schools and businesses. In January, Red Cross workers operated shelters from Florida to Connecticut to help those affected by storms. Severe weather continued into February as a massive winter storm buried the country in ice and snow from the Rocky Mountains to Maine. The Red Cross responded in 19 states, offering food, comfort and a safe place to stay to hundreds of people.

Multiple disasters in spring 2011 made it one of the deadliest seasons in U.S. history. A se-vere outbreak of tornadoes across the South and Midwest—which hit communities such as Tuscaloosa, Ala., and Joplin, Mo.—took lives and destroyed homes. Red Cross workers were on the ground immediately to help, providing shelter for people whose homes were damaged or destroyed, and fanning out across affected areas to assess the damage. Red Cross nurses and mental health workers were also deployed to help people cope with the aftermath of these disasters.

members, veterans and their families.

To further support military families, the Red Cross briefed more than 1.3 million people through the “Get to Know Us Before You Need Us” program, which helps service mem-bers and their families understand how the Red Cross can help them in times of need.

The Red Cross also provided training scholarships to more than 2,800 military

Teaching Lifesaving Skills in New Ways

and CPR from the Red Cross last year. In addition, some 3.6 million people attended preparedness presentations.

The Red Cross also launched a campaign to educate people in hands-only CPR, releasing the “Citizen CPR” course that teaches the technique in just 30 minutes. Supplementing this are a hands-only CPR video and a quick-reference sheet available on redcross.org. The video is also available on YouTube.

In partnership with Dr. Oz and ShareCare, the Red Cross developed an application for Android mobile devices that provides real-time instructions for emergency situations. Users can follow step-by-step videos with demonstrations by Dr. Oz, and 3-D animations are included for the more complex scenarios, such as hands-only CPR and choking. The app even has an audio and visual counter for giving real-time CPR compressions.

In May 2011, the Red Cross launched www.ReadyRating.org nationwide to help schools and businesses with their emergency planning and preparedness efforts. Members of this free program can use an online assessment to measure their current preparedness efforts and receive customized feedback about how to improve their preparedness level.

2011 at a Glance

disasters.

• Provided 386,320 services

to military families.

• Collected 6.2 million units

• Taught 8,298,330 people

lifesaving skills.

When deadly tornadoes struck Alabama in April 2011, Red Cross volunteers provided shelter, meals and emotional support to stunned residents.

At military hospitals across the country, volunteers deliver items such as toiletries, clothing, books, computer games and snack items for patients and their family members.

The Red Cross wants to educate 5 million people about hands-only CPR, a potentially lifesaving technique that doesn’t involve mouth-to-mouth contact.

Celebrating Blood Donors, Raising AwarenessSomeone receives a blood transfusion from a generous Red Cross donor 21,000 times a day—and many of us have either needed blood or know someone who has needed it. The Red Cross serves the needs of communities across the United States by providing approximately 43 percent of the nation’s blood supply. While we already have one of the safest blood supplies in the world, we continually seek to improve safety.

The Red Cross held more than 200,000 blood drives last year, collecting 6.2 million units of lifesaving blood. These donations were then processed into 9.1 million blood products for transfusion to meet the needs of nearly 3,000 hospitals across the United States.

For the third year in a row, the Red Cross celebrated blood donors through Red Cross

raise awareness about the ongoing need for blood donations. The Red Cross also had the chance to honor our military heroes at the AAA Texas 500 race in November 2010. The Red Cross held a pre-race “Salute Our Troops” concert that day and hosted 150 U.S. troops, giving them special viewing access during the race.

With your support, the American Red Cross responds to disasters, builds safer communi-ties and educates future humanitarians around the world every day. This past year, we worked with our partners in the global Red Cross and Red Crescent network to assist 229 million people in 76 countries.

Responding to DisastersWhen disasters hit, the local Red Cross or Red Crescent can often handle the crisis alone, but sometimes they reach out for help. The American Red Cross helps meet urgent needs by deploying disaster specialists, mobilizing relief supplies and contributing

assistance to more than 8.6 million people, from Japan to Haiti.

For example, after a devastating earthquake and tsunami hit Japan in March 2011, the American Red Cross joined the Japanese Red Cross to help provide water and new appliances, as well as repair damaged medical facilities. As of June 2011, the American Red Cross has provided $230.8 million to the Japanese Red Cross and other partners to support relief operations, reaching more than 200,000 people with assistance.

Last year, the American Red Cross continued to help people in Haiti rebuild and recover from the January 2010 earthquake. The Red Cross is helping Haitians rebuild their lives through activities such as constructing homes, delivering clean water, supporting hospitals, improving sanitation and trash disposal, providing income-generating opportunities and

Building Safer, Healthier CommunitiesThe American Red Cross works with its Red Cross and Red Crescent partners to build safer, more resilient communities around the world, reducing the devastating effects of natural disasters and health crises.

Continuing the highly successful Measles Initiative, the American Red Cross helped lead the program toward vaccinating 1 billion children in the last decade, putting us on the continued path toward eradicating this deadly disease. Since the Measles Initiative began in 2001, measles deaths have decreased by 78 percent worldwide.

Educating Future Humanitarians Humanitarian principles are at the core of the Red Cross mission, and continuing this work requires inspiring and engaging the next generation. Across the United States, American Red Cross chapters help both adults and youth understand International Humanitarian Law and its relevance to our daily lives and the issues we face as a country.

Last year, the American Red Cross educated 139,000 people in more than 40 states in International Humanitarian Law, teaching students about humanitarian issues around the world and the critical need to protect civilians as well as combatants in times of war

Even the Smallest Donation Counts

Every day, the American Red Cross responds

to hurricanes – each one devastating to the people involved. The Red Cross is not a government agency, and we rely on donations to provide food, shelter, emotional support and other assistance, as well as to fund the vehicles, warehouses and people that make relief possible.

Although big, highly visible disasters often bring widespread public support, we need the ongoing support of everyday donors to help pay for the small and medium-sized disasters that we respond to. In fact, in an average year, the Red Cross spends about $450 million on disaster relief throughout the U.S.

Every gift matters – so whether you donate during times of need, give a little every month, or – like this little guy – drop off some cash at a fundraising event…thank you.
