American Red Cross Sonoma & Mendocino Counties Charity Profile

The American Red Cross has had an active presence in our area since 1898, when Sonoma County volunteers made sandwiches for the men of Company E as it marched away to fight in the Spanish American War. The American National Red Cross officially chartered the Chapter in 1917.

Since that time, the local Red Cross has worked hard to meet the area’s growing needs. With a combined population of nearly 600,000 people in two counties, the Chapter has one of the fastest growing populations in the state. It is also an area that is prone to two types of major disasters – flooding and earthquakes.
