“If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap.  If you want happiness for a day, go fishing.  If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune.  If you want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody.”

Links Your Business with Powerful Brand

Did you know that the American Red Cross is America ’s best known charity?  Among well-known trademarks, the Red Cross ranks second to the Olympic Rings among nonprofit organizations.  In the United States , the Red Cross ranks first.  Among all trademarks, the Red Cross ranks third.   

Did you know that 83% of Americans have a more positive image of companies that support a cause that they care about? 

The public consistently cites the American Red Cross more than any other nonprofit organization as an organization that helps save lives, and in an Omnibus telephone survey conducted by ORC International, the Red Cross is named more often than other major organizations as the “most important” charity.

The Berks County Chapter has a terrific way for area businesses to support us.  Participation in our Community Partnership program provides much needed funds to the Berks County Chapter of the American Red Cross prior to an emergency when help is needed most, and offers businesses advertising and public relations benefits including linkage with the powerful Red Cross brand.

The Red Cross Community Partnership program affords your organization the opportunity to allocate funds for sponsorship programs during the budget planning process rather than at frequent intervals throughout the year.

We are the nation’s best-known and most trusted humanitarian service organization!  Whether it’s across the nation, around the world, or just down the block, the Red Cross is there to serve every man, woman and child.

Your company will be associated throughout the year with the many vital programs the American Red Cross provides to the Berks County community such as disaster response, transportation of veterans to and from the Veterans Administration hospital, service to members of the military and their families, health and safety training including CPR, first aid, aquatics and AED, as well as community disaster and preparedness education, youth development opportunities and Red Cross Clubs, volunteer recruitment and much more.

Sponsorship of the American Red Cross tells your customers that you care about their safety and that you value integrity, trust, and humanitarian relief for all people.
