American Red Cross services to the U.S. military include emergency communications,financial assistance,counseling,as well as information and referral. Services of the local Red Cross chapter and the military-based Red Cross unit are available to active service members; veterans:and reserve,National Guard or other community-based military personnel.

The American Red Cross Movement started more than a century ago in the battlefields when Clara Barton voluntarily tended to fallen soldiers during the Civil War. Today, we continue to provide services to the military by trained volunteers. Our Morgan County chapter has continued to provide this service since it was chartered in August, 1917.
