Welcome

 

When our communities here in Western South Dakota are faced with emergencies or disasters, people turn to the American Red Cross for support – both emotional and financial. Because of donors and volunteers, we are able to provide food, clothing, shelter and mental health services to clients and help them get through the emergency.

 

In addition, with our Armed Forces Emergency Services program, we are able to connect military families when it counts the most.

Through our Health and Safety programs, we have trained thousands of community members in life-saving skills, such as CPR, First Aid, Nurse Assistant, Lifeguard and Babysitting training, and emergency and disaster response training.

 

Your support, both as volunteers and donors, is essential for us to continue to execute out vital mission in South Dakota.
